Ebenezer was arraigned before a Ghanaian court yesterday for assault and causing harm to a child.
He said he was innocent and that his actions were only to discipline his son.
His lawyer put forward a bail for his release because he had been in police custody since his actions against his son was reported to the police.
This plea was objected to by the Prosecutor, Inspector Regina Oparebea Amoako, who stated that the suspect would be a threat to the mother and the victim.
The judge granted him bail and refused to remand him in custody due to the Coronavirus pandemic. His trial will commence on May 21st.
Family members of the abusive father say they will be taking him to the hospital for a mental examination.
According to them, they recently noticed a strange behavioral change in him after he landed an employment opportunity and started interviews and presentations.
They described him as a very academically bright quiet person who keeps to himself a lot.
