Two police officers working in the Greater Accra Region have been suspended from duty. This action was taken because of claims that they accepted money.
The officers are accused of asking a suspect for cash. They allegedly wanted to use this money to influence the justice system and obstruct the course of justice.
The Ghana Police Service has started an internal investigation into the matter. This is to carefully examine the accusations made against the officers.
Interdiction means the officers are temporarily removed from their duties while the investigation takes place. They will not be performing police work during this period.
This move shows a commitment to upholding the integrity of the police force. It signals that serious allegations of corruption will be thoroughly examined.
The outcome of the investigation will determine any further actions. This could include disciplinary measures or clearance for the officers.
