The Police service has challenged media reports that an officer stripped a taxi driver naked at Anyaa in Accra for jumping red light.
The Inspector General of Police (IGP), David Asante-Apeatu on May, 3 2017 ordered an immediate investigation into an incident where a police officer allegedly stripped a taxi driver naked for jumping a red light.
The victim, Kwabena Danso, was stripped naked in public by his accuser Gabriel Tabiri, who is stationed at the Anyaa Police Station. Pictures of the incident have gone viral on social media.
But according to the outcome of a police investigation, the taxi driver stripped himself naked in his bid to avoid arrest.
The findings read in part that: “The taxi driver drove through a red light at Anyaa Market junction on 2nd May, 2017.
“The Taxi driver resisted lawful arrest, struggled with arresting officer, tearing his own trousers and dress to free himself from the grips of the arresting officer.
“The Taxi driver assaulted the police officer in uniform as corroborated by witnesses.”

Really? Like seriously? A very sane person decides to strip himself naked in broad day light? Ghana Police Service you must be kidding me. I find it very difficult to understand that the Ghana Police Service didnt even have a problem with the way the Police officer tried to make the arrest. What a shame. Shame on you Ghana Police Service.
Ghana police u are doing "well paaa'. When one continues to lie, one day he ends up telling a lie without realizing that the truth stands staring at you. Ghana short and killed a close friend of mine who was having mental challenges and re framed the story he was an armed robber. Now see are they saying their findings are testimonies of those on the scene or I guess from the well coached police man himself. Eyes are watching.
Ey Ghana police . na waaaooooo
Dis is non.sense Ghana Police are as st.upid as their name. Independent body shd investigate rather
THE POLICE WILL ALWAYS GIVE A REPORT TO SAFEGUARD THEIR PEOPLE AND INTEREST. ALWAYS THEY ARE RIGHT. LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSLEVES. UNLESS THEY WERE TAKEN AND PUBLISHED HERE. OR THEY WERE ACTING. ONE THING IS WHO HAVE BEEN DOING THE INVESTIGATIONS OTHER THAN THEMSELVES. FOR SUCH A THING GOING AGAINST THEIR INTEGRITTY THEY WILL WRITE AGAINST IT. FORTUNATELY WE HAVE PHOTO EVIDENCE. GHANA POLICE WAKE UP.
Civilians witnessed what transpired. If you don't believe your police, go to the filling stastation and get your facts. ***barred word***.
This is the most n0ns3nsical thing I've ever heard the Ghana Police say in years.Even a KG kid will not believe this 1d10t1c report. The one who conducted this f1lth should be sanctioned immediately.The driver should have beaten the ***barred word*** out of that bastard.
Very sad. The police should have taken is car number and do the arrest later. This is not wealthy to see
my heart is aching..what the hell are they talking about? abufus3m paa ni,he stripped himself naked and you can see the police holding him like that?? ahh,only in Ghana.If not for God,hmmmmmmmm
Can the police tell us how a man being gripped by a police officer was able to completely strip himself naked in broad daylight? But should the police officer grip a person under arrest forcefully, or just invite the individual to the police station? I think our police personnel need training in how to arrest people without commotion. What does the law say on police arrests??
