Apart from the reported rape case and the many allegations flying im which sort of taint KKK’s (real name Kwesi Kyei Darkwa) reputation and paint him a serial sexual assaulter, KKD insists his intercourse with the 19 year old was consensual.
When it comes to rape, it is always one person saying the sex was consensual and the other saying it was not—mostly the woman takes the latter stand and the man the former.
KKKD is reported to have asked when the police visited the crime scene that; if he indeed raped the 19 year old girl as she claims, why didn’t she scream for anyone to hear her? Legally, this is a stupid question but in our Ghanaian setting, most people seem to think rape comes out of struggles or using force.
But if you put a woman under duress to secure her consent for sex or force her in anyway (though she did not scream) that still may amount to rape. Screaming or fighting back is the indicator of whether rape took place or not—rather whether the woman granted the needed consent.
