The Awutu Ofaakor Circuit Court has remanded 12 National Security officers and two land guards. The court ordered them to remain in custody. Her Honour Nana Asantewaa Attakorah heard the case.
These 14 individuals are linked to the unlawful demolition of over 60 buildings. These buildings were still being built. The incident happened in Gomoa Akoti in the Gomoa East District.
The specific charges against the officers and land guards were not immediately detailed in court filings. The prosecutor requested their continued detention.
Land guard activities are illegal in Ghana. They often lead to disputes and property damage. This incident highlights ongoing issues with land ownership and enforcement.
The court has scheduled further proceedings to hear the case. More details are expected to emerge from the ongoing investigation.
