Yesterday, the Kaneshie District Court in Accra let Shalimar Abbiusi go free on bail for GH20,000 with two people as sureties. She is from Belgium and works for a new political group called “The New Force Spokesperson.” They advertise their group on billboards and social media.
This was after she pleaded not guilty to obtaining a student permit by false declaration. The New Force Spokesperson was granted bail following a bail application by her lawyer, Francis-Xavier Sosu, in court yesterday.
Abbiusi is to reappear on Tuesday, December 19, this year, at the court presided over by Nana Abena Asor Owusu Amenyo.

The prosecution said the accused person introduced herself as a spokesperson for the group.
CI Asenso told the court that investigations revealed that the accused person first came to Ghana on September 4, 2017, through the Kotoka International Airport and had since been a regular visitor to the country until 2018, when she became a resident following her supposed admission to the Ghana University College.
The prosecutor said checks from the college revealed that she had never been a student.
He added that documents purportedly issued by the college to support her application for a residence permit were allegedly forged.
