Seven police officers interdicted over alleged extortion in Accra

By: Nana Ofori

Seven officers of the Ghana Police Service have been interdicted following allegations that members of a patrol team extorted money from a victim in Accra.

In a statement signed by Deputy Superintendent of Police and Staff Officer of Public Affairs, Richmond Mensah, the personnel are accused of compelling the victim to withdraw cash from an ATM and handing it over to them.

The interdicted officers are Inspector Courage Boateng; General Sergeant Stephen Addo; General Corporal Moses Anyravi; General Corporal Prosper Adiabo; General Lance Corporal Samuel Anokye; General Constable Henrieta Coleman; and General Constable Bernard Amoako.

The interdictions have been imposed to allow the Police Professional Standards Bureau (PPSB) to carry out a thorough investigation.

The Ghana Police Service said it would examine the matter closely and take appropriate action based on the outcome of the probe.
