At the first hearing of the case at the Cocoa Affairs court in Accra
on Tuesday, KKD was denied bail.
Below is the charge sheet as presented in court:
"The complainant is a 19-year-old student residing with her parents at
Katamanso.
The accused, Kwesi Kyei Darkwah is a broadcaster and resides at Tema.
On December 27, 2014 at about 7:30 pm, there was an event called 'RIP
the RUNWAY fashion show organised at the African Regent Hotel, which
the complainant attended together with her cousin.
When they arrived at the show, they met the accused person in front of
the hotel after pleasantries and attractions. They walked into the
lobby where the accused introduced them to his cousin who was also at
the show.
The complainant and her cousin took few pictures with the accused
person, his cousin and other men.
Accused, who admired the height of the complainant asked her and her
cousin to accompany them to the hotel room to powder his face before
the show because he will be on stage and he will be captured by TV
camera.
The complainant and accused took one of the lifts to the third floor
of the hotel and went into the room together with her cousin and the
accused's cousin.
They were offered drinks, but they refused and sat down. While there,
the accused called the complainant to come and help him do make up in
the washroom. The complainant obliged and entered the washroom leaving
the two in the living room.
The Accused forcibly had sex with the complainant in the washroom.
A report was made to the police and a medical report was issued to the
complainant to attend hospital.
When the Accused was arrested, he denied the offence and stated that
the complainant gave her consent and that he did not force her. He is,
however, charged with the offence before this court."
