The Ghana Police Service, through the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), has arrested a suspect captured in a viral video assaulting a woman.
The suspect, identified as Christford Affadu Danful, also known as Ekow Black, a TikToker, was arrested on Thursday, January 15, 2026, in an intelligence-led operation conducted by the Inspector-General of Police’s Special Cyber Vetting Team, following the circulation of the video on social media.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the suspect and the victim, who previously lived together, had a history of disagreements that allegedly escalated into verbal confrontations and physical abuse.
Mr Danful is currently in lawful custody and is expected to be arraigned before the court to face charges in accordance with the law.
The Ghana Police Service has reassured the public of its commitment to protecting lives, upholding the rule of law, and dealing decisively with all acts of violence.
