Police appeals to public...To help crime



The Ghana Police Service has passionately appealed to every individual in the Ghanaian society to volunteer information about criminals and criminal activities throughout the country, says the Crusading Guide in a back page story.



The paper says Mr Johnson Iddisah Abudu, Deputy Commissioner of Police in-charge of Operations, who made the appeal at a news conference in Accra, last Thursday, lamented the current spate of violent crime in Ghana in general and the Ashanti Region in particular.



"While we are fighting this menace, I am appealing to the general public to inform the police about any incidence of crime anywhere", he is reported as saying. Mr Abudu assured any prospective informant of anonymity, saying that the particular information could be by telephone or "whatever means".
