The Ghana Police Service has stated, they are not in any way going to shield their men found culpable of breaking the law.
This comes after two police officers were arrested for their alleged involvement in bullion van attacks in Accra.
According to the police, other suspects were arrested in connection to the robbery incidents which occurred in North Kaneshie, Jamestown, Baatsona and Kingsway.
In an interview with the media, the Director-General in charge of Police Public Affairs, DCOP Kwesi Ofori said thorough investigations have begun into the crimes.
“The police administration will not protect anyone who does wrong in the service. We have got two of our own and investigations are ongoing seriously”, he said.
“At the appropriate time, we will come out clearly with the information. The public should see this as a plan of policing ourselves and dealing with our own in such unfortunate situations. We will ensure that we will carry the spirit and aspirations in terms of protection and better security.”
Two police officers have been accused of being complicit in four recent bullion van attacks recorded in the Greater Accra Region.
This was disclosed in a statement issued by the Ghana Police Service on Monday, March 7, 2022.
