Alliance for Social Equity and Public Accountability (ASEPA) has today, Wednesday 23 March filed a complaint with the IGP over malicious publications by Editors of the Daily Guide Newspapers against the Speaker of Parliament.
Among other things ASEPA has included copies of a series False and Malicious publications by Daily Guide specifically concocted to court public disaffection for the Speaker of Parliament.
In a press release signed by the executive director, Mensah Thompson, ASEPA called for the laws of the Country to be applied equally to the editors of the Daily Guide Newspaper just as it has been applied to persons alleged to have made False and Malicious Statements against certain persons in Government including the Executive Director of ASEPA, Mensah Thompson who was arrested and detained over 48hours for similar publications.
They stated that, their checks at the office of the Speaker revealed that, several attempts to get the Daily Guide to issue a rejoinder over their false and malicious publications against the Speaker of Parliament has all proven futile.
ASEPA is therefore calling on the police to eschew being selectivity and apply the laws of this Country irrespective of whose ox may be gored.
