Forensic Test Confirms that Substance Kwaw Kese Smoked Was Indeed WEED | Now What NEXT?…He Faces Up to 10 Years in Prison

Kwaw Kese has been locked in a police cell in Kumasi for some weeks now on a request by the police that they needed more time to establish by forensic examination if the substance Kwaw Kese was arrested for smoking in public was indeed WEED.

During the last Court appearance in Kumasi, Kwaw was remanded in jail to allow the police a little more time to be able to establish this and bring the test result to the presiding judge—and today, it has been confirmed by Police prosecutor-Richard Where that; the substance Kwaw was arrested in Kumasi for smoking is indeed WEED.

According to the existing Ghanaian law in relation to the smoking or possession of weed, an arrested person can be sentenced to about 10years in prison—and the smoking of such a substance in public with gross impunity is also a difference offence under section 58 of the Public Health Act 2012 (popularly known as Act 851).

Now that the forensic test is in, Kwaw Kese’s next court appearance on 22 December, 2014 (that is if bail is not secured before then) may see the Ghanaian musician being convicted and sentenced.

The judge could temper justice with mercy by throwing him into jail for 6 or less months or just slap him with a reasonable fine—but remember, he can throw him into jail for as long as 10 years that is if there is no effective defence to the crime.

Surely, it looks like Kwaw Kese has bitten more than he can chew…

Earlier today, in line with our projection, Kwaw’s legal team made an application to a Kumasi High Court, requesting for a bail to be granted on health grounds but the court threw out the case—saying, the lawyer even failed to produce a medical report to support the bail request

  1. I understand this whole kwaw Kese issue but why can’t the Ghana police use the same energy in tracking down whoever killed his manager Fennec?
    What happened after more than six months since the guy was murdered? Its no more a big issue? Bull dog has been left to walk away freely after enough evidence proved He had a hand in the poor man’s death?Why do I have a feeling someone has been bribed to do this.Even the pregnant obuor and his squad smoke more weed than anyone else.
    Ghana police U are fools indeed.Leave Kwaw kese alone, he’s had enough this year already.

  2. Welcome to the bizarre world that is Ghana. The law enforcement target gays, weed smokers and petty criminals(chicken and goat thieves), but allow actually criminals to walk around. The crooks of GYEEDA, SUBAH and the guinea fowls we just told to refund the money. No jail time, no arrests. The petty criminals who quiet often steal little things are those sentenced to long prison terms. While looters from Wayome, Ghana@50, EO group, SUBAH, SADA etc walk freely in Ghana. It tells you the priorities of the country and it’s law enforcers. In Ghana if you want avoid jail steal big and bribe big. In my opinion the justice system in Ghana has no credibility and therefore has no right to try Kwaw Kesse. His legal team should fight to have this case thrown out. The one cedi Ghana police has no credibility either. I am certain they don’t need any test to determine what kwaw kesse was smoking. After all if they don’t know what he was smoking why was he arrested? The criminal gang masquerading as a police force is a farce. It’s time Ghanaians tackled serious crimes not pot smoking or stealing a chicken.
