Lance Corporal Frederick Amanor Godzi, the police officer who assaulted a woman at Midland Savings and Loans Company in Accra is not free yet according to the Director-General of the Public Affairs unit of the Ghana Police Service, ACP David Eklu.
The Police officer who had criminal charges levelled against him was discharged for ‘want of prosecution’
Giving further explanation when he appeared on TV3's 'Key Point' programme, Saturday, ACP Eklu said “you can interdict an officer up to 90 days” and that even though he seems free in the eyes of the public, he is 'undergoing Police administrative inquiry'.
According to him, "currently he is working pending the outcome of the internal procedures"
“So as I speak now, he is now going through a trial administratively to determine whether his conduct is in line with police professional conduct...If he was convicted (by the court), he would have been dismissed from the Police Service automatically. Since that action did not lead to a conviction, he is back now facing administrative service inquiry" he added.
