Shortest Man Case in Kasoa
Shortest man in Kasoa jailed 10 years for stealing a cement bag, expresses disappointment in God as he had prayed for divine protection before making the attempt
Speaking in an interview with Crime Check Foundation, he said, “I steal and sell the bags of cement to a regular client of mine. I was caught in the act and confessed because I feared I would be lanched. I sell the bags far below the market price, as low as GH¢70 each.”
“I work as a labourer under him; he is a Mason by profession. I am his apprentice, yet he refuses to pay me anytime we go out to work. I chose to confess my cr+me publicly because I want others to learn from my mistake and advise themselves. st+aling is criminal, and if the law catches up with you, you will pay the price.”
“I am a staunch muslim, I observe my daily prayers. I know it is wrong to steal, and Islam frowns on it, but I pray for divine protection before making any attempt at it. I was very worried when I was arrested.”
