Lil Win granted GH¢50k bail; case adjourned to June 27

Actor Kwadwo Nkansah, popularly 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.
He was taken from the emergency unit of the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital around 6:30 am, wearing a neck collar.


The arrest is linked to a recent accident involving a vehicle driven by Lil Win, which resulted in the tragic death of a three-year-old boy.
The family of the deceased had been calling for justice, but the police cited Lil Win’s ill-health as the reason for the delay in his arrest.
He now faces charges of dangerous driving and negligently causing harm.
During the court proceedings, the prosecution requested that Lil Win be made available whenever needed as the investigation continues.
Lil Win’s counsel, Margaret Adjei-Twum, argued for bail, citing his injuries, including internal bleeding, which required further treatment.
She assured the court that Lil Win, being a well-known public figure, would not evade the judicial process.
Despite the ongoing investigation and the significant police presence at the court, the judge granted bail and adjourned the case to June 27, 2024.
On the day of the accident, Lil Win, with a bandage on his head, still attended his movie premiere.
His management later released a press statement updating the public about the accident, but the content of the statement has been widely criticized as insensitive to the bereaved family.
