Popular Ghanaian actress, Rosemond Alade Brown better known as Akuapem Poloo, has been convicted by the Circuit Court in Accra for going nude to mark her son’s birthday.
TheNewsGuru recalls that the actress made headlines in June last year after she shared a photo of herself completely unclad on the occasion of her son’s seventh birthday.
Amid the criticisms, Akuapem Poloo apologized while stating that the photo was originally meant to encourage people to appreciate their mothers.
But Bright Appiah, the director of Child Rights International in Ghana, had demanded her prosecution in a petition leading to her invitation and arrest by the police.
Akuapem Poloo was thereafter charged with publication of obscene materials and engaging in domestic violence — a conduct that in any way undermines another person’s privacy or integrity.
She was also charged with engaging in domestic violence, a conduct which detracts or is likely to detract from another person’s dignity and worth as a human being.
The role interpreter was said to have earlier pleaded not guilty to the charges when she was first arraigned.
