Weapons stolen from Tamale Police Armoury

The Police Administration has constituted a team of police experts to investigate the alleged disappearance of weapons from the Tamale Police Armoury. A former police officer, Inspector Kwaku Johnson, alleged on an Accra-based radio station that a number of rifles and ammunitions had been stolen from the Tamale armoury and sold to civilians, who use them to commit violent crimes and to fuel the ethnic conflict in the Northern Region. To help the team in their investigation, the Police Administration further announced the arrest of Regimental Sergeant Major (RSM) Mahama Nantogma, who was in charge of the police armoury in Tamale. The team is made up of officers from the Arms and Ammunition Registry of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) headquarters, the Police Intelligence and Professional Standard Bureau and the Internal Audit Directory. In addition to the investigations, the team is also to conduct a thorough audit of the weapon facilities of the police in the Northern Region. According to the Director of the Police Public Affairs Directorate, DSP Kwesi Ofori, the team had already been dispatched to give effect to the administrative orders of the police high command. He said the outcome of the investigations would be made known to the public to assure Ghanaians that the police Administration would do whatever it could to ensure the safety of the people at all times. He said the administration was determined to flush out all miscreants and indisciplined cops from the system. Source: Daily Graphic
