Policemen Siphon Fuel From Official Car

Reporters of the FREE PRESS, last Friday, spotted two policemen driving in a 56-seater police bus with registration number GP1086 siphoning fuel allocated to them for their official patrol duties at the Avenor junction directly opposite Deng Company also not far from Alajo junction.

The two junior policemen siphoned 36 gallons of fuel and sold a litre for 15,000 cedis instead of the 18,000 cedis as it is sold on the open market.

This act of making money at the expense of the service earned the two over three hundred thousand cedis which is believed they will share with their faceless bosses.
