Angry sympathizers of former President Jerry John Rawlings on Thursday besieged the premises of Top Radio, an Accra-based radio station, to demand evidence for a statement made by a panelist during the morning show, Adekyepa, that last Sunday's fire at the Ridge residence of the Rawlingses was deliberately caused by the former president.
The sympathizers, chanting and shouting, said Nana Darkwa, one of the panelists on the programme hosted by Kwasi Fokuo Kudom, made the allegation during the discussion.
The spokesman for the former President, Mr Kofi Adams, also came to the studios of Top Radio to demand proof for the claim made by Nana Danquah, according to sources at the radio station.
Mr Adams was well composed, but the supporters angrily banged the gates of Top radio, the sources said.
Two of the panelists, George Best and Nana Darkwa, both of the NPP, were invited to the Regional Police Headquarters for interrogation.
Scuffles ensued when the two men were being taken away in a police vehicle, with the irate NDC supporters demanding proof for the allegation.
Later, several policemen from the Nima Divisional Command rushed to the premises of Top Radio to prevent any confusion.
