Bishop Obinim and  Kwabena Okyere were separately put before a Kaneshie Magistrate Court in Accra.

They were both charged for the publication of false news and forgery of a document, contrary to sections 208 and 159 of the Criminal and other Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29), respectively.

Together with four others at large, the two were facing four counts of conspiracy to publish false news, conspiracy to forge other documents, publication of false news, and forgery of documents.

The court has since struck out the charges.
