Safo Agyei, lawyer for Lebanese supervisor Chaaban Jihad, who allegedly dipped the face of Ghanaian kitchen staffer Evelyn Boakye into pepper paste at Marwako Fast Food’s Abelenkpe branch, has said the victim’s face was shoved into onion paste.
On Monday March 20, he told an Accra District Court where Chaaban is standing trial for assault that the victim of the alleged assault was blending onion, not pepper, when the incident occurred.
The claim of the lawyer attracted murmurs from the courtroom, with some indicating that onions produce a more burning sensation than pepper.
After hearing the argument of the defence counsel, trial judge Victoria Akua Guanza adjourned the case to March 22 for another hearing.
Chaban was granted bail when he returned to court on Thursday 16 March. The Ghana Police Service has assured that justice would be served.

Mr Lawyer if your mum had dipped your face in onion paste, would you have grown to be a lawyer? please spare us this ***barred word***. When you reach dip your wife's face or that of your child in onion paste wai. God have mercy
Lawyer whether onions or pepper there was a DIP for God's sake. You don't have to defend the truth. Just let your client plead guilty and dont think about the money you will get from him. It could be your sister some day
Mr Lawyer be truthful, why are you shifting the goal post? The other time you said that the accused splashed the pepper into the face of the victim but not dipping her face into the pepper. Today, you are denying it wasn't pepper but rather, it was onion paste. So how truthful are you? You are being economical with the truth. Mr Lawyer don't be ***barred word***.
Massa; What on earth is WRONG with these Fake and KROOKED street pocket lawyers in Ghana -KWARAAA !!!!so you have the nerve to tell a judge that instead of pepper mash it was onion mash ; what legal school and which legal teachers teach these wayward lawyers to come to court and argue such poor legal case ; is he not aware that onions are are even more toxic than pepper; anyway the lagal point here is not the toxicity of the both pepper and onions it is the act which amounts to grievious badly harm and the worse JOKE is that this lawyer claims this 'JIHADI' maggot born in Ghana ; does this lawyer think Ghanaians are fulls because being born in Ghana does not make you a Ghanaian neither does having a Ghanaian passport make you a Ghanaian; there are so many Ghanaians living and working abroad with foreign passports but that does not make them American or English or Germans because it is happening in the US ; having a US passprt does not make you an American ; let alone committing acts of violence ; Donald TRump will kick your backside pretty fast !!!!! besides if you flout the law the law will deport you from whence you came from and that is Lebanon-PERIOD !!!!!!
Maybe we should dip the lawyer's face in onions paste to see how pleasant that experience can be.Everything is possible in Ghana.When will this salvery and wickedness stop
I remember this lawyer claimed that there is no way the lady's face can pass into a blender, therefore there couldn't be any dip. So now there was a dip. That is where he looses the case. The defendant should have sought a better lawyer.
kwa se ya lawyer next time this will happen to you family member. All the best
Look at how "A GHANAIAN LAWYER" can descend into the gutters defending the indefensible. The court must jail this Lebanese for this dehumanizing and devilish act.
Does the onion paste makes it less of a crime? This lawyer is not serious.
