Ghanian actress and socialite Rosemond Brown popularly known as Akuapem Poloo has been slapped with a three- month jail term for posting obsence materials on social media.

The conviction on Friday comes after she posted a naked picture with her son on Instagram celebrating his seventh birthday.

On Wednesday, She pleaded guilty to all three charges and was convicted on her own plea by the court though she had initially pleaded not guilty. She also underwent a pregnancy test before her sentencing, iot turned out negative.

The pictures attracted comments, adding that the behaviour of the accused person was likely to detract from the dignity of her seven-year-old son among others.

The complainant in the case was Bright Appiah, the Director of Child Rights International Ghana.

The child’s right activist petitioned the police after the photo went viral on social media, and the matter was referred to the Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit (DOVVSU).

According to the prosecution, on June 30 2020, Rosemond celebrated her son’s seventh birthday by taking nude pictures together with her son who was also half-naked.

The prosecution said Rosemund after her arrest in 2020 admitted posting the nude picture with her son but insisted she did so unintentionally.

The pictures attracted comments, adding that the behaviour of the accused person was likely to detract from the dignity of her seven-year-old son among others.

Handing her judgement, Judge Christina Cann bemoaned the spate of nudity on the Ghanaian social media space.

According to her, the punishment meted out to Rosemond Brown must serve as a deterrent to others.

Miss Brown’s lawyers say they plan to appeal the sentence.
