My Sick Client was ‘Bulldozed’ To The Police Station – LilWin’s Lawyer Speaks

Story Highlights
  • Lil Win's lawyer, Margaret Mary Twum, secured bail despite his ongoing accident case and health concerns
  • Mary Twum argued for bail due to Lil Win's fragile health
  • Lil Win's lawyer expressed disapproval over the police detaining him while hospitalized

Margaret Mary Twum, legal representative for actor LilWin, has disclosed the courtroom strategy behind securing bail for her ailing client amidst his ongoing accident case.

During the court proceedings, Margaret advocated for bail, emphasizing LilWin’s health concerns and the potential impact of detention on his well-being.

While the prosecution didn’t contest the bail request, they proposed a condition for LilWin to report weekly to the police for investigation assistance.

However, Judge Buaben Quansah rejected this suggestion, granting bail at GH¢50,000 with two sureties, and scheduling the next court appearance in four weeks to allow for recovery.

In an interview LilWin’s lawyer expressed dismay over the police’s actions in detaining her client during his hospitalization.

“We were essentially coerced into coming here. My client’s health is fragile, and though we respect the law, it’s disheartening. Luckily, the court recognized his condition, granting bail,” she stated.

LilWin was taken into police custody on June 3, 2024, upon discharge from Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, with bail subsequently granted at GH¢50,000, and the case adjourned to June 27, 2024.

The accident involving LilWin occurred on May 25, 2024, near Grace Baptist Church in Amakom, Kumasi, resulting in injuries to several passengers and the tragic death of a 3-year-old boy.

Following the incident, LilWin’s management pledged support to the bereaved family, as the actor, despite his injuries, made a determined appearance at the premiere of his film “A Country Called Ghana” at the KNUST CCB Auditorium later that day.
