KWAW DENIED BAIL AGAIN

Kwaw Kese has failed to secure bail at the Kumasi High Court on medical grounds. Kwaw Kese was discharged from the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital after he was rushed there Thursday night over ill health. Lawyers of the embattled musician Friday filed a motion for bail at the High Court after the Circuit Court refused their initial bail plea.

But their case was thrown out by Justice Edward Apenkwa after lawyer for the boss of ‘Mad Time’ Entertainment failed to produce a medical report to support the claims that his client is ill and must be granted bail.Kwaw Kese is on remand for smoking weed in public.

Meanwhile, the narcotic substance suspected to have been smoked by the embattled hiplife artist has tested positive for Indian hemp. The forensic report of the test result on the substance was disclosed in an open court today by the Police prosecutor, Richard Where.There had been confusion over what substance the remanded hiplife artiste actually abused leading to his arrest.

Kwaw Kese is on remand for smoking weed in public in Kumasi in the Ashanti region. His case at the Circuit Court has been adjourned to December 22. The “Man insane” is likely to serve a maximum of 11 years in jail should he be found guilty.
