According to a statement released by Ghana Police Service, the police officer has been “arrested, detained and interdicted immediately.”

The statement further added that the Regional Police Command has commenced an investigation into the matter and any subsequent update will be communicated to the General Public.
“The Regional Police Command would like to reiterate its stance of not shielding officers who involve themselves in criminality as is the policy of the Inspector General of Police and the Police Administration,” the statement read.
