The arrested Bantama boys who were later identified as comprising of a Junior High School (JHS) and two Senior High School ( SHS) appeared before an Asokwa District Court 1, the presided judge Mr. Peter Oppong Boahen.
The judge ruled that investigations have revealed the boys have hit the age of 18 and as such need to appear at a higher court and not at the juvenile court.
What this means is that the boys will be rearrested by the police and arraigned before a circuit court to face charges of rape
