An Accra Circuit Court presided over by Justice Emmanuel Essandoh has adjourned the case to 28th of this month, in which a 24-year old private security man, Bless Amedegbe, alias Don Dada, has been charged with assault on the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

The accused person was earlier arraigned without a lawyer and remanded into custody to appear in court Friday, May 22.

However, when the case was called he was represented by one lawyer Danquah who told the court that he had applied for the records of the previous proceeding to be able to represent his client well but he was yet to receive the proceedings.

He subsequently prayed for adjournment to enable him to get the proceedings and study it before returning to court on the adjourned date.

The accused person is facing two charges of circulating false communication and assault on a public officer contrary to sections 76(1) of the Electronic Communication Act, 2008 (Act775) and section 205 (A) of the criminal and other offences act 1960, Act 29.
