London Police caution KKD brother for threatening lady
The London Metropolitan Police has formally
cautioned Yaw Addo Darkwah, brother of Kwesi Kyei
Darkwah (KKD) over the threat he issued to a
London-based Ghanaian lady Dilys Fit Chic Sillah.

Adom News reported about a month ago that Yaw
Darkwah threatened to send his “trolls” to
Dilys Sillah for posting videos of herself on
YouTube commenting on the ongoing KKD alleged rape
case.

Dilys had posted three videos on Youtube
critically analyzing the manner in which the KKD
case was being handled as well as the
socio-cultural and psychological implications.

Although Dilys did not say KKD was guilty of the
offence or that the 19-year-old alleged rape
victim, Ewuraeffe Orleans Thompson was innocent,
KKD's brother did not take kindly to the Youtube
videos.

Yaw Addo Darkwah sent a message to Dilys’
Facebook inbox threatening to send his
“trolls” to her if she talked about KKD
again.

Dilys said subsequent to that initial threat, he
(Yaw Darkwah) and one of his so called "trolls"
called Nanna A. Glow on Facebook sent several
insulting and threatening messages to her on
Facebook and YouTube.

She therefore reported the matter to Facebook and
to the London Metropolitan Police on Tuesday
January 20, 2015.

The police then traced Yaw to his South London
home, made several calls to his house phone and
left messages for him to report at the police
station for interrogation but he ignored the
police for more than two weeks.

He was given the option to make an appearance at
the Police Station with his solicitors for
questioning.

After playing hide and seek with the police for
over two weeks, he finally went to the police
station on Monday, February 16, 2015 and was
confronted with the evidence.

Yaw Darkwah reportedly admitted to the offence but
denied knowing Nanna A. Glow, who issued even more
serious threats.

Dilys told Adom News that the police say they have
issued a formal caution to Yaw Darkwah and warned
him never to contact her again.

The Canadian-based Ghanaian lady, Nanna A. Glow,
who also threatened Dilys could also face police
interrogation soon.

“The police said they will find a way to get the
Nanna A. Glow” she said.

Back on Facebook
Meanwhile, following Dilys’ report to Facebook,
Yaw Darkwah’s official Facebook account was
completely wipe out.

He is however back on Facebook with a different
name, Yaw Addo, having dropped the famous
‘Darkwah’ name that Nanna A. Glow bragged
about as “untouchable”.

He has since apologized to Dilys on Facebook and
informed the police of the apology.

Dilys is meanwhile currently in Ghana pursuing her
vision of enlightening women about their rights,
and emphasizing the need for a culture that
assists victims instead of vilifying them.
