The Kwabenya Circuit Court has remanded Solomon Tetteh Codjoe, a 37-year-old aviation operator, into police custody for allegedly stealing aviation jet fuel.
Codjoe is accused of committing the crime alongside two accomplices, Seth and Enoch, who are currently at large. The trio have been charged with conspiracy and theft of aviation fuel valued at GH¢25,860, belonging to Blue Ocean Company Limited.
Codjoe pleaded not guilty to the charges and is scheduled to reappear in court on September 16, 2024.
The prosecutor, Inspector Theodora Akanwarisagi, informed the court that the complainant, Kojo Agyei Baah, serves as the security supervisor at Blue Ocean Company Limited, located at Kotoka International Airport (KIA) and Codjoe resides in Tema Community Two.
According to the prosecution, on September 4, 2024, around 2:10 p.m., Baah spotted a white KIA Bongo truck with registration number GC 4329-20 parked on the company’s premises during his routine inspection. He observed a hose connected to the hydrant pipeline, siphoning fuel into containers inside the truck.
When Baah approached, the suspects fled the scene. Baah immediately notified his manager, Divine Dey, who reported the incident to the police. Authorities arrived at the scene and impounded the truck and the stolen fuel for further investigation.
Codjoe was arrested the same day and confessed to the crime during questioning, implicating Seth and Enoch as his accomplices.
