Shatta Wale has reportedly been transported to Ankaful Prison for his one-week sentence.
According to starrfm.com.gh, Shatta Wale has arrived at the Ankaful Prison in the Central Region to begin his one-week prison sentence after an Accra Circuit Court denied him bail.
The well-known artist was detained and taken to prison by police officials on Thursday night. He is anticipated to stay for the one week mandated by the court.
The judgment was made after he pleaded not guilty to the allegation of disseminating false information in the public realm, which generated fear and terror.
Shatta’s assistant, Kojo Owusu Koranteng, a graphic designer, and Iddrisu Yussif, a beautician, all of whom appeared in court with him, were charged with aiding and abetting unlawful publishing of fake news.
All of the suspects pled not guilty and were remanded in custody by the police.
