The High Court in Accra has granted bail to Bishop Salifu Amoako and Mouha Amoako, parents of Elrad Amoako, whose actions resulted in the crash that claimed two lives at East Legon.
A third accused person, Linda Bempah described by prosecution as a sales assistant at Lilo stitches which belong to brother of the suspect has also been granted the bail.
Salifu Amoako and Mouha Amoako who are parents of the suspect driver were arrested by the police on Tuesday and put before the court on Wednesday.
They have been charged with permitting an unlicensed person to drive.
According to the facts of the case presented by prosecution, the two admitted during interrogation that they allowed their child, who is the suspect in the case to drive to gym and to some other places.
Prosecution, however, revealed in court that the keys to the Jaguar car which belongs to Mouha Amoako, mother of the suspect, was given to the Elrad by the third accused person, Linda Bempah.
In court on Wednesday, lawyers for the accused prayed the court to grant them bail as they have fixed places of abode, gainfully employed, known in society and will make themselves available for trial.
They further argued that the accused have no intentions to commit another offence while on bail, nor interfering with investigations.
They further urged on the court to consider the fact that the charge leveled against the accused is a misdemeanor.
Though prosecution did not oppose the the bail application, it asked for stringent bail conditions.
The judge after considering the arguments, granted bail to the accused persons to the tune of GHc 50,000 each.
