Court extends Funny Face’s two-week psychiatric evaluation by a month

Funny Face

The Ofaakor Circuit Court has extended Funny Face's psychiatric evaluation by a month at the behest of the doctor attending to the comic actor at the Accra Psychiatric Hospital.

The doctor told the court in a letter that the extension is needed since Funny Face is still unwell and needs strict treatment which required enough rest.

The doctor, therefore, prayed the court to increase the number of days the actor should spend in the hospital.

The court, presided by Ebenezer Osei Darko, granted the request on Monday, 1 March 2021.

The case has been adjourned to 1 April 2021.

On Monday, 15 February 2021, the same court ordered the Ghana Police service to send the actor to the psychiatric hospital for a two-week evaluation because “he does not sound normal” and “may be having a mental crisis and possibly going through depression”.

Funny Face was arrested and detained by the police at Kasoa in the Central Region for unlawfully discharging a weapon on Monday, 8 February 2021.

He was released days after, and went on an attacking spree on social media.

In his rants, Funny Face accused the police of manhandling him while in their custody.

He also lashed out at his fellow showbiz celebrities for not condemning the alleged abuse meted out to him.
