Coup Plot Was Fabricated – Joy FM

JOY FM enquiries into the alleged coup plot are pointing to a possible fabrication of the allegation. Sources have told JOY FM that a retired soldier, who was questioned together with four others, was the source of the report.

According to the sources, the informant reportedly confessed that he invented the story implicating Lt Col Gbevlo Lartey and two other serving officers in a plot to overthrow the government. It is believed that he might have been motivated by thoughts of financial reward from the security agencies.

Lt Col Gbevlo Lartey has declined to comment on the matter. However, reliable sources told JOY FM there are fears he could resign from the army following the development, unless probably a public apology is rendered.
