A leading member of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), who doubles as the Bono Regional Chairman Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has been re-arrested in connection with an ongoing defamation case before the Accra Circuit Court.
The case reportedly stems from alleged comments made by the outspoken politician against a judge.
Sources close to the proceedings said Abronye was subsequently arraigned before the court after his arrest and was remanded into police custody for two weeks by the presiding judge pending further hearing of the matter.
Details surrounding the alleged defamatory comments and the specific charges before the court remain unclear as of the time of filing this report.
The development is expected to generate renewed public and political attention given Abronye’s high-profile role within the NPP and his history of controversial public commentary.
Court proceedings are expected to continue after the expiration of the remand period.
