The Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC, has been remanded into custody for two weeks as investigations continue into allegations of misinformation and offensive public statements.
The outspoken politician was rearrested on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, weeks after he had earlier been granted bail in connection with the same case.
Abronye DC was initially arrested on Monday, April 13, over allegations of offensive conduct, false publication, and statements allegedly deemed capable of causing fear and panic among the public.
He was subsequently granted bail pending further investigations.
Authorities have now taken him back into custody as security agencies intensify investigations into the allegations against him.
Officials are yet to provide full details regarding the circumstances surrounding the latest arrest. However, sources close to the investigations indicate that the case forms part of broader efforts by security agencies to clamp down on the spread of alleged false information and inflammatory public commentary considered capable of disturbing public peace.
Authorities have also not disclosed whether additional charges are expected to be filed against the NPP regional chairman.
