The Member of Parliament for Bortianor-Ngleshie Amanfro Constituency in the Ga South Municipal District in the Greater Accra Region Sylvester Tetteh believes the findings of the joint committee set by parliament to probe the killing of 5 individuals suspected to be land guards will reveal the truth behind the issue.
The Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Andrew Amoako Asiamah, has assigned the Defence and Interior Committee to conduct an investigation into the killing of five individuals suspected to be land guards by the police.
In addition, he called upon the leadership of the Constitutional, Legal, and Parliamentary Affairs to collaborate with the Defence and Interior Committee to assist with the inquiry.
The decision to launch an investigation comes in response to a request made by Sylvester Tetteh, the Member of Parliament for the area, and other lawmakers, who demanded that Parliament form an inquiry into the incident.
The incident occurred on June 8 during an anti-robbery and land guard operation in Bortianor.
However, some residents have contested these claims, asserting that some of the individuals killed were not land guards but ordinary residents.
In a media interview, Sylvester Tetteh was optimistic the committee will do a good job.
