Three policemen interdicted...Over robbery incident

The Ghanaian Times in its top story, reports that three policemen implicated in a September 30 robbery incident at Techiman in the Brong Ahafo Region, have been interdicted on the orders of the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Peter Nanfuri.

The Times says that police sources named the three as Inspector J.K. Nyamekye, 56, Corporal Alex Danquah and Constable Ray Samuel Quaicoo, all of the Techiman Police. According to the sources, the interdiction was to facilitate investigations, which have become puzzling following conflicting claims by the complainant and the suspects. The paper says that a day after the robbery, the complainant, Kofi Nkebere, who claimed to have been robbed of two million cedis by a policeman and some civilian, identified Corporal Danquah of the Techiman Police Charge Office as the cop, who led the gang.
