Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah, widely known as Lil Win, has been granted bail of GH¢50,000 with two sureties by the Asokore Mampong District Court following his arrest on Monday, June 3.
Lil Win was detained by officers from the Motor Traffic and Transport Department of the Manhyia Divisional Command shortly after being discharged from the hospital.
His arrest is linked to a recent accident involving his vehicle, which tragically resulted in the death of a three-year-old boy.
The family of the deceased had been pressing for justice, but police cited Lil Win’s ill health as the reason for the delay in his arrest.
He has been charged with dangerous driving and negligently causing harm.
During the court proceedings, the prosecution requested that Lil Win be available whenever needed as the investigation continues.
Lil Win’s lawyer, Margaret Adjei-Twum, argued for bail, stating that her client had suffered injuries, including internal bleeding, and needed further treatment.
She assured the court that Lil Win, being a public figure, would not evade the judicial process.
The judge granted bail and adjourned the case to June 27, 2024.
