Jihad Chabaan, a branch manager of Mawarko Fast Food, has been sentenced to nine months imprisonment.
Jihad Chabaan was found guilty of assault and causing harm to a caterer at the restaurant he manages.
The victim, Evelyn Boakye, reported the incident when Jihad Chabaan allegedly dipped her face in a blended pepper.
The incident which occurred in February 2017 attracted the attention of the general public resulting in the prosecution of Jihad Chabaan.
An Abeka District Court Judge Victoria Ghansah pronounced judgment on the case after Counsels for Mr. Chabaan's plea for an out-of-court settlement was rejected on grounds that the case under her jurisdiction is a criminal one.
According to our court reporter, Agya Kwabena, Jihad Chabaan has been sentenced to 6 months in prison for assault and 9 months for causing harm, and will serve both sentences concurrently.

At least our law is working, i just hope he is not kept somewhere for us to think he is at nsawam. Media men should make time and visit him during his stay there and get us pix so full assurance. Only God knows if this was to be his country what they would have done to the person. The government should deport him after his sentence so that at least the rest will respect our law and constitution. Long live mother Ghana
The sentence is a slap on the wrist! Let a Ghanaian do this in Lebanon and see if he/she will not be executed! He should also pay damages to the victim and after he has served his sentence he should be deported immediately
THERE ARE A LOT OF JIHAD CHABAAN'S CALIBER IN THE SYSTEM WHO ARE MALTREATING AND CHEATING GHANAIANS IN VARIOUS FORMS AND IN VARIOUS ESTABLISHMENT OWNED BY THESE FOREIGN CROOKS. THEY NEED TO BE FISHED OUT.
You put pepper in someone's eyes. Now, they have put pepper in your eyes. They serve marwako shamarma in prison so go and eat some there.
AT LONG LAST THE LAW SEEMS TO BE WORKING IN GHANA.YES! ITS TRUE IF THIS CRIME HAD BEEN COMMITTED BY A FELLOW BLACK IN LEBANON,OR SAUDI ARABIA,HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SENTENCED TO DEATH. I SAID A FELLOW BLACK BECAUSE TO ME ALL THESE ARABS,LEBANESS,INDIANS ARE BLACKS YET THEY THINK THEY ARE WHITE AND THEREFORE HAS A DISCRIMINATORY RIGHT TO INFLICT UNBEARABLE PAIN ON US.GONE ARE THE DAYS.
You say you know how to put pepper in people's face. Go and put pepper in people's face in prison too.
plenty marwako fried rice in jail. but different taste & quality.
Which prison, Nsawam or Kete Krachi? Will they send you fried rice there?
Your fullllllish lawyer is also to blame. He tried to blame the victim for the assault. By the way, you should go in for 9years. I wish you get more years when you lose your appeal. Will you take Marwako fried rice & shawarma takeaway to in nsawam jail with you? Let me know.
Deport him after serving his sentence to send a signal to those who treat, treating and having the mind of subjecting even an ***barred word*** in Ghana to such inhuman treatment a warning.
