Sensing that he could be arrested, arraigned before court and jailed if found guilty, he abandoned the congregation and took to his heels leaving behind his sandals and bible and was pursued by the joint police and Ashaiman Municipal Taskforce.
Spokesman for the taskforce Moses Ayariga who confirmed the arrest MyNewsGh.com, said they had a tip off and therefore went to the church but the pastor upon seeing them took to his heels but officials managed to clamp his car.
