Blogger Arrested for Publishing Lilwin Fake News

A female blogger known as “Candy’’ has been arrested by the Tesano Police, for publishing false news about popular Ghanaian actor, Kwadwo Nkansah, also known as “Lil Win’’.

The blogger, on Monday posted a story on Ghsplash.com, which stated that, the Kumawood actor had knocked down someone, with his Chevrolet Camaro at the car park of the Ship House at Abeka Junction.

But information gathered indicates that, no such incident occurred at the Car Park and this compelled the management the Despite Group of Companies to report the incident to the Tesano Police.

In an interview with Lilwin, he narrated that he noticed he was being videoed by the blogger at a time he was having a conversation with a receptionist at Peace FM. But he had little indication the video was going to be used for a fake story.

“I had calls from friends who told me they had seen a story online stating I have knocked down someone at the Peace FM car park. I visited the site and saw the same video the girl took whiles I was chatting with the receptionist. That was when I got to know the one behind the fake story,” he stressed.

This prompted the arrest of the blogger, as she was remanded in police custody.

Both parties were made to write their statements to enable the police to conduct its investigation.

Recently, there was information about the death of the actor, which was eventually false.
