State prosecutors on Thursday challenged the authenticity of a letter purportedly written by Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson to withdraw rape charges against ace broadcaster KKD.
The two-paged letter, dated January 12 stated that the “media frenzy” that followed the arrest of KKD, the unceasing buzz and social media posts which she described as insensitive, informed her decision.
The doubt of the letter emerged when lawyers of KKD drew the attention of the court to the letter on Thursday when KKD appeared before court at a bail hearing.
A letter written by Ewuraffe Orleans Thompson to withdraw charges against KKD was directed to Director of Public Prosecutions at the Attorney-General’s Department, and copied to the Chief Justice, the Registrar of the High Court and the top hierarchy of the Ghana Police Service.
