The remains of the military officer who died in a car crash with Ebony is set to face a court-martial.

According to sources at the Military high command, Francis Atsu Vondee of the Ghana Air force stationed at the Accra Air force Base in Burma Camp was not officially deployed for the bodyguard duties.

The military officer, who was travelling with Ebony died when their Jeep crashed a VIP bus Thursday night on the Sunyani-Kumasi highway while returning to Accra from Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo Region.

Three of the four occupants – Ebony, Francis Atsu Vondee and Ebony’s close friend known as Franky- died in the accident.

Their driver however survived and is currently in critical condition in an undisclosed hospital.
The Ghana Armed Forces confirmed Vondee who was in a military uniform at the time of the accident, was not assigned to perform bodyguard duties, and that, he was doing “purely private and personal business”.

According to our sources at the military high command in Accra, investigations would be conducted into the matter and once it is established he was not officially sanctioned for bodyguard duties, his body would be court-martialed.

The sources said if Francis Atsu Vondee is found guilty of the charge, his family “could be denied his benefits” due him, including insurance packages.
