The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is calling for the speedy prosecution of 16 New Patriotic Party members who stormed the studio of UTV on Saturday, October 7, 2023, and disrupted a live program.
The arrests were made following a complaint by the Despite Media Group and the Ministry of Information raised concern that people had invaded the studio of UTV.
Speaking to Ahotor news, Amos Blessing Amorse, the NDC’s Greater Accra deputy youth organizer, called on the Regional Police Command to brief the public on the arrests and the steps being taken to apprehend the other suspects who evaded arrest on the day.
Mr. Amorse referenced the arrest of a former NDC communicator who was apprehended and convicted for verbally and physically assaulting as a presenter at Dagbon FM in the Northern Region in May 2023.
He admonished the police to apply the same urgency in dealing with the 16 suspects who have been arrested for storming UTV’s studios.
