A Circuit Court in Cape Coast has sentenced 49-year-old fisherman Samuel Armah, also known as ‘Kofi Nyan’, to 10 years’ imprisonment with hard labour.
This was after he pleaded guilty to defiling a 13-year-old girl at Mumford in the Central Region.
According to the press release issued by the Central Regional Police Command on October 29 2025, the offence occurred on October 16, 2025.
The suspect reportedly lured the victim into a ghetto in Mumford, where the act was recorded in a viral video.
“On 28/10/2025, the defilement case … was called at Circuit Court Two, Cape Coast, presided over by Her Honour Nana Aba Quiba Nunoo. The accused person pleaded guilty to the charge of defilement and he was convicted on his own plea and sentenced to serve ten (10) years imprisonment in hard labour,” the statement said.
The victim was initially taken to St. Luke Catholic Hospital for examination and treatment before the case was referred to the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU) of the Central Region.
At the DOVVSU, Armah is reported to have admitted the offence and has since been remanded to Ankaful Prison to begin serving his sentence.
The police have also appealed to residents of Mumford and surrounding areas to assist in apprehending four identified accomplices – Agoogo, Edina, Kwesi Abbam and Agya Ankoto – who remain at large.
