An Accra Circuit Court presided over by Her Honour Abena Oppong Adjin-Doku has adjourned the case in which Hip life artiste Eugene Ashie popularly known as Wisa Greid is facing trial for indecent exposure.

The case was adjourned due to the failure of the prosecutor to show up in court when the case was called.

According to Daily Heritage's Mutalla Inusah, Wisa’s lawyer Jerry Avenogbo wrote to the court for the case to be stood down but the court decided to adjourn the case to September 21.

The accused person whose bail condition was reviewed at the last adjourned date was present after he failed to appear in court on previous occasions.

Background

Prosecuting, Chief Inspector Judith Asante told the court that on December 25, 2015, the Greater Accra Regional Police Command’s attention was drawn to a nude video posted on the Internet from an unknown source.

She said in the video, Wisa removed his penis while performing live on stage at the AICC on December 24, 2015 while he was dancing with a female.

She said the police contacted his managers to produce him at the Accra Regional Police Headquarters for investigation and they duly obliged.

“Investigations into the case revealed that on December 24, 2015, Airtel Telecommunications Company and Citi FM organised a Christmas party at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC), with Wisa as the guest artiste.

In the course of the programme, he was ushered to perform on the main stage, together with a female dancer.

Chief Inspector Asante said during his performance, Wisa stood behind the female dancer as they danced together and suddenly, he started to stroke the buttocks of the dancer with his manhood, in the full glare of the audience.
