LILWIN CHARGED WITH DANGEROUS DRIVING, NEGLIGENTLY CAUSING HARM AND MAY BE JAILED 5 YEARS IF FOUND GUILTY

Actor Kwadwo Nkansah aka Llwin who is an accused person in court has been charged with dangerous driving and negligently causing harm. Counsel for the accused, Margaret Adjei-Twum, who argued for bail for her client drew the court’s attention to the fact her client suffered injuries, including internal bleeding and required further treatment.

She assured the court that Lil Win, being a well-known figure, would not interfere with police investigations. The prosecution requested that the accused make himself available whenever needed as the investigation continues.

The Asokore Mampong District Court has granted bail in the sum of GH¢50,000 with two sureties to Actor Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly known as Lil Win and the case has been adjourned to June 27, 2024.

Lil Win was arrested on Monday, June 3, by officers from the Motor Traffic and Transport Department of the Manhyia Divisional Command shortly after being discharged from hospital.

Meanwhile, a private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has stated that the actor may face up to 5 years jail term considering the fact the accident claimed the life of a 3-year-old boy.

The Lawyer provided a detailed analysis of the charges brought against actor LilWin by the Motor Transport and Traffic Directorate (MTTD) of the Ghana Police Service.

Kpebu clarified that if found guilty, LilWin could face up to 5 years imprisonment or a fine as a penalty for the charges. He noted that, based on how previous accident cases were handled, it is more common for offenders to receive fines rather than prison sentences.

The lawyer suggested that, considering the loss of life, jail terms should be seriously considered as a punishment for road accidents.
