Actor Kwadwo Nkansah, widely known as Lil Win, was granted bail of GH¢50,000 with two sureties by the Asokore Mampong District Court after his arrest on June 3.
Officers from the Motor Traffic and Transport Department of the Manhyia Divisional Command detained him shortly after he was discharged from the hospital.
The arrest stems from an accident involving Lil Win’s vehicle that led to the death of a three-year-old boy.
The boy’s family has been pressing for justice, but police attributed the delay in Lil Win’s arrest to his health condition.
Lil Win faces charges of dangerous driving and negligently causing harm. The prosecution, still investigating the case, stressed that Lil Win must remain available for further inquiries.
They cited his health condition as a reason for the delayed proceedings.
Lil Win’s lawyer, Margaret Adjei-Twum, argued for bail, stating that Lil Win, who sustained injuries including internal bleeding, needed treatment.
She assured the court that Lil Win, a well-known figure, would not evade the legal process.
Despite his incomplete recovery, the police compelled his court appearance.
Heavy police presence was noted at the court, and the case was adjourned to June 27, 2024.
