One of the lawyers for the embattled Power FM presenter Kodwuga Adawudu has expressed his unhappiness over the detention of Oheneba Boamah.
The radio presenter was arrested for allegedly threatening and insulting President Akufo-Addo.
Mr Adawudu says they are not happy with the police's decision to hold him in custody when his offence is bailable.
"The police only said they were taking him somewhere and we realized he has been detained, we went to ask for a bail the police has the right to give us bail within 48 hours if they refuse we will go to court , they can't continue to keep him beyond 48 hours".
