Ace broadcaster Kwesi Kyei Darkwa (KKD) will today [Tuesday] make a second attempt to seek bail, after being charged for allegedly raping a 19-year-old lady.
[contextly_sidebar id=”cS7HfDw1uozXXIuCMmMbRVkYnwvUiODF”]He has been denied bail once by a Kaneshi District court.
He later resorted to the Human Rights court in Accra for bail but the case was not heard because the prosecutor said they needed more time to study KKD’s application.
According to KKD’s lawyers, they are seeking bail at a higher court because the District court does not have the locus to grant their client bail over a rape case.
The fashion icon has been accused of raping 19-year-old Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson in December last year and has since been in the custody of the Police since December 28.
KKD is facing charges for rape; an allegation he has flatly denied with the explanation that he had “consensual sex” with the victim.
Meanwhile, he was rushed to the Police Hospital last week Thursday after he was spotted in the court limping.
