The Ofaakor Circuit Court in the Awutu Senya East District of the Central Region has remanded comedian and actor Funny Face into police custody.
The comedian, whose real name is Benson Nana Yaw Oduro, was taken into custody on Sunday night, March 24, following an automobile accident in Kakraba, Kasoa, that claimed the lives of four people, including a motorcyclist and a mother with two children.
On Tuesday, March 26, Funny Face appeared in court on accusations of driving while intoxicated and irresponsible.
While awaiting his next court date, he is anticipated to be detained by the police for a period of two weeks.
This occurs subsequent to the actor being a part of an incident in the Central Region’s Kakraba, Kasoa.
Three of the victims are receiving treatment at the Winneba Trauma Centre, and one victim has remained unconscious since the accident.
The brother of the victim clarified that although his brother was initially sent to Ridge Hospital, they were unable to admit him because of a bed shortage.
He was then referred to the Police Hospital, but admission there was also denied.
Mr. Asare claimed that after his brother encountered these difficulties, he was brought to the Kakraba community hospital. He mentioned that in order to make a transfer to a larger medical facility possible, they pray for divine intervention.
