The Weija Magistrate Court has granted bail to the facility manager of West Hills Mall and a contractor after they appeared in court on November 1, 2021, for blocking the entrance to the China Mall at Weija with rocks.

The manager, James Mensah, 42, and contractor, Samuel Annum Adjei, 44, have been charged with conspiracy to commit crime, unlawful entry of premises and offensive conduct conducive to the breach of peace and trespassing.
