Security Analyst David Agbee has raised concerns over the Police handling of the supposed Boko Haram model-like vigilante group at Akim Ofoase in the Eastern region.

According to him, the Police appear to be lenient in their approach in dealing with the group.

Members of the group, believed to possess extreme views on Islam, operating in Akim Ofoase are alleged to be torturing Muslim women who defy their orders.

Five members of the group have been arrested and subsequently granted bail after long hours of interrogation.

Police sources say the activities of the group had the blessing of Muslim leadership in the Zongo community as part of a strategy to make Islamic Law supreme in the Community.

They have, however, assured residents of the area to be calm as there is no cause for alarm.

But speaking to Starr News, Wednesday, Agbee said the Police must be tough on the group since their activities bothers on national security.

“This is not a matter that must be handled lightly. It bothers on national security and the police must be serious in their approach in curbing their activities from the community,” he stated.

“I have been disappointed in how the Police have handled the matter so far”.
