The whereabouts of a Deputy Communication Director of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Yaw Buabeng Asamoah, who was allegedly arrested by some security operatives, has finally been located.
The NPP Executive together with a number of party supporters have been locked up at the police Criminal Investigations Department (CID) cells.
Sammy Awuku, another executive of the party�s communications team, confirmed the news in an interview on OmanFM at about 12am.
Yaw Buabeng Asamoah was picked up at gun-point near the Coconut Groove Regency Hotel by the police at about 9pm on Monday, after he had gone to the Regional Offices of the BNI where an NPP firebrand, Kennedy Agyapong was being kept to offer moral support.
For more than three hours, the NPP leadership had no idea who had caused his arrest, why he had been arrested and where he was being held.
Acting Public Relations Officer of the Ghana Police Service, DSP Cephas Arthur, had earlier told the Madina-based radio station that he could neither confirm nor deny if Mr Buabeng Asamoah was in police custody since his superiors had not briefed him of the reported incident.
However, an hour after the interview with the Police PRO, Sammy Awuku confirmed that had seen and spoken with his colleague communications member.
