What Ghanaian actress Rosemond Brown thought was an exercise of liberty by posing nude with her son has turned sour.
The actress better known as Akuapem Poloo has been sentenced to three months in prison by an Accra Circuit Court over what is described as the publication of obscene material and domestic violence.
According to reports, Poloo was sentenced for her Instagram post where she went naked while posing with her seven-year-old son in June, last year (read here).
They added that the court sentenced her to 90 days in jail, the actress pleaded for mercy, to no avail.
“Mummy please, Mummy, I beg you, Mummy please,” she reportedly said to the judge.
Akuapem’s lawyer, Mr Andy Vortia, prayed for a more lenient sentence but the court held that a harsh sentence must be passed to serve as a deterrent to others.
The actress was convicted on her own plea, after she had pleaded guilty to three counts of publication of obscene materials, engaging in domestic violence namely a conduct that in any way undermined another person’s privacy or integrity, and engaging in domestic violence namely conduct that in any way detracted or was likely to detract from another person’s dignity and worth as a human being.
