Media icon, Kwesi Kyei Darkwa affectionately called KKD is expected to appear before an Accra court today, December 30.<\/p>\n

The Police are however eager to beat the 48-hour limit of detaining a suspect in a criminal case.<\/p>\n

KKD was arrested on Saturday night at the African Regent Hotel for alleged indecent assault of a 19-year-old girl<\/strong><\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

His Counsel, Nana Asante Bediatuo earlier dismissed the claims with an\u00a0explanation that his client had \u201cconsensual sex\u201d with the \u00a0complainant.<\/p>\n

Nana Asante Bediatuo is however\u00a0optimistic that his client will be granted bail today\u00a0stating that looking at the \u201ccircumstances of this case, there is a strong likelihood that he will be granted bail.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a related development, family members of KKD say they suspect foul play in the arrest of their son.<\/p>\n

A family member who spoke to Citi News<\/strong> on condition of anonymity disclosed that the complainant was forced to press charges against KKD by a third party adding that\u00a0“we think it is a case of blackmail because what will a 19-year-old girl be doing with a 50 year old guy in a hotel room. Why did she follow him to the hotel room in the first place. It saw some boys who came to make the first complaint and the police told them to bring the lady.\u201d<\/p>\n
