Nigerian movie star Jim Iyke was involved in a brawl yesterday, at the Crave Café at Adjiringanor, East legon in Accra.
According to an
eyewitness account, some people were eating at the café, at about 5pm
when a stout-looking gentleman in a black Range Rover with a Nigerian
number plate, came to the café.
Jim Iyke also
arrived about 20 minutes later in his Sports Chevy with a Nigerian
number plate, and engaged the man in a heated argument over $10,000
which later turned into a nasty brawl on the street.
The eyewitness
further explained that it became difficult for those around to separate
the two, and at a point, Jim Iyke wanted to get into his car to pull out
something which was suspected to be a gun, but he was prevented by
those at the café.
The other man
left but returned shortly with two policemen, one in mufti and other in
uniform who arrested Jim Iyke and took him away.
But the
eyewitness told The Ghanaian Times newspaper that barely 20 minutes
later, the actor resurfaced at the venue, which created the impression
the case had been ‘settled’ by the two policemen.
The Legon
Police Commander in a telephone conversation, with The Ghanaian Times
said, the men he dispatched to the venue had information of the scuffle,
but those at the scene were reluctant to give the police indepth
account of what actually transpired, and so they were unable to bring
the two men to the police station.here
