Two Nigerians have been sentenced to 36 years imprisonment by a Kumasi Circuit Court for snatching an amount of GH¢5,000.00 from a cashier.
Gift Anyagbu, 25 and Morgan Nwaokike, 22, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy and stealing.
They are each going in for 18 years.
Police Inspector Oduro Boateng told the court presided over by Justice William Boampong that the complainant, Victoria Amihere is a cashier working with Unichem Ghana Limited.
She had gone to the Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB), Adum Branch, to withdraw the money belonging to the Company on July 6, 2010 at about 0930 hours, when the convicts riding on a motorbike snatched the money wrapped in a polythene bag from her.
A taxi driver who saw them commit the crime chased and run his car into the bike to prevent their escape.
They were arrested and handed over to the police.
