Kyei Darkwah bail on humanitarian grounds.
KKD, as he is popularly called, is standing trial for allegedly raping
a 19-year-old lady, Ewureffe Orleans Thompson.
Bail bond was set at 20,000 cedis with two sureties to be justified.
Joy News' Anny Osabutey reported that the state opposed the bail
application citing a 1970 case.
But the presiding judge rejected the argument, saying the case was
decided at a difficult time in the nation's political history.
He said he will not allow a man's freedom to be unjustifiably
curtailed merely on the basis of a 1970 case.
