Seeptember 7, 2023 – The Ghana Police Service has taken decisive action by interdicting Commissioner of Police (COP) Mr. George Alex Mensah, along with Superintendent Mr. Emmanuel Eric Gyebi and Superintendent Mr. George Lysander Asare. This action stems from their alleged involvement in the leaked audio tape concerning the Inspector General of Police (IGP), which has recently captivated public attention and triggered an investigation by Parliament.
The interdiction of these high-ranking officers is a procedural measure in order to pave the way for thorough disciplinary proceedings in accordance with the established Police Service regulations. This move underscores the gravity of the situation and highlights the commitment of the Police Service to uphold integrity and accountability within its ranks.
The leaked audio tape has been circulating widely, depicting a purported plot to oust the current IGP, George Akuffo Dampare (PhD), from his position. The contents of the tape have raised concerns and sparked extensive discussions within both law enforcement circles and the broader public.
The Police Service’s swift action in interdicting the implicated officers demonstrates a commitment to transparency and the due process of law. This move will allow for a comprehensive investigation into the matter, ensuring that all parties involved are afforded a fair and just assessment of their actions.
As the investigation unfolds, the public eagerly awaits further updates on this unfolding story. The outcome of this process will not only have far-reaching implications for the individuals directly involved but will also serve as a testament to the dedication of the Police Service in maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and ethical conduct within its ranks.
