Bulldog Acquitted And Discharged Of Case Of Fennec Okyere’s Alleged Murder
Artist & Repertoire (A&R) Manager for Zylofon Music, Bulldog, has been and acquitted and discharged of the case of Fennec Okyere’s murder.
The final hearing of the case took place on Wednesday, January 31, 2018 at the Accra Central District Court.
The court presided over by Worlanyo Kotoku said that the prosecution has been conspicuously absent in the matter. The court also held that the complainant had also been absent.
“Prosecution not here; complainant not here, at the last hearing date, prosecution has been conspicuously absent. I have no option than to discharge you” Mr. Kotoku noted.
The Prosecutor had over the weeks failed to make an appearance in the case. The court had at its previous siting ordered that Richard Gyambibi, the Senior State Attorney who wrote the advice on the case docket be summoned before the court to explain certain “coded” aspects of the advice.
The AG had advised that Bulldog, who also doubles as the CEO of Bull Haus Entertainment be discharged to enable further investigation in the three-year-old case. Although the court had summoned Mr. Gyembibi neither he nor the prosecutor was in court when the case was dismissed yesterday.
Fennec Okyere, then manager of Kwaw Kese, was killed at his home at Spintex in Accra in 2014.
Bulldog, who also doubles as the CEO of Bullhaus Entertainment has since been the prime suspect in the alleged murder case.
He was picked up by the Police Criminal Investigation Department (CID) in 2014 at Kokomlemle, a suburb of Accra, as a prime suspect in Okyere’s death.
Bulldog’s plea has not been taken even though per the police charge sheet, he has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder until an Accra High Court subsequently bailed him.
He took to his Facebook page to thank God and all those who stood by him in those trying times.
