In the aftermath of the crash, numerous NPP-aligned social media users passed unsavoury comments about the tragedy.

Fante Comedy and others were accused of issuing death threats and publishing false news surrounding the crash, leading to their arrest.

On Wednesday, August 13, an Accra Circuit Court granted the accused bail in the sum of GH¢100,000 with three sureties, two of whom must be gainfully employed.

He was also required to surrender his passport to the police until further notice.

Fante Comedy remained in police custody for days after the ruling, ostensibly due to his failure to meet bail conditions.

On Monday, August 18, he was finally released on bail.

He appeared before the Accra Circuit Court and walked out a free man.
