Approximately 40 police officers have sent a petition to the Deputy Attorney-General. They are unhappy with new instructions from the Ghana Police Service regarding their promotions. These instructions reportedly conflict with a past court order.
The officers claim the Ghana Police Service issued a signal. This signal requires them to sit a competitive examination. They argue this contradicts a ruling by the Court of Appeal of Ghana. The court had previously ordered their promotion.
The officers involved are represented by their lawyers. Through these lawyers, they presented their concerns to the Deputy Attorney-General. They seek intervention to uphold the court's decision.
The petition highlights a disagreement between a judicial ruling and an administrative directive. This situation affects the career progression of the affected officers. The outcome of the petition could impact police service promotions.
