A Tarkwa circuit court has remanded Kojo Poku, a 47-year-old illegal gold miner, into prison custody for defiling two kindergarten girls between the ages of eight and six at Nsueam in the Western Region.

He pleaded not guilty and will re-appear on November 1.

The Prosecutor, Chief Inspector Florence Tawiah told the court presided over by Mr. Samuel Obeng that the accused who is popularly known as Faabu is a resident at Nsueam.
