The Ghana Police Service has taken action by interdicting three of its personnel over some disturbance in Adugyaman in the Ahafo Ano South East District in the Ashanti Region.
This was in response to reported lapses in duty during the ongoing Limited Voter Registration Exercise.
Inspector Michael Addo, G/CONST. Eric Boakye, and G/CONST. Michael Gyan have been relieved of their duties with immediate effect following allegations of professional misconduct.
In a statement on May 12, the service indicate that the interdicted officers, stationed at the Electoral Commission Office in Adugyama, purportedly failed to execute their responsibilities effectively when faced with attempts to disrupt the registration process on May 11.
The Service believes that their alleged failure to maintain proper security protocols has prompted swift disciplinary action from the Police Service.
The interdicted personnel are expected to undergo the due disciplinary process within the Police Service.
