Osman Brustani, the man, believed to be Lebanese, caught on tape threatening to slit the throat of a\u00a0Ghanaian, has been arrested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The police say, Brustani is currently in police custody and will be taken through the due process of the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBefore the arrest, the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare reached out to the victim yesterday, Tuesday, 13th April 2022 via a telephone call and he seemed traumatised by the incident. As a result upon the IGP\u2019s instruction, the victim has been given psychological support by a clinical psychologist from the Police Hospital. The IGP also followed up with a personal visit to the victim today, Wednesday, 13th April, 2022,\u201d the police said in a Facebook post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The bearded man, captured in the viral video clip wielding a sword he had pulled from a sheath, was heard screaming, \u201cCome out, come out! I will cut your neck!\u201d as a group of Ghanaian men tried to calm him in the heat of the melee, which took place on Oxford Street, Osu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lebanese Embassy condemned the action, calling on the Ghana Police Service to investigate and \u201cto take appropriate measures against the offender\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe reject all forms of violence and intimidation, as well as anyone who does not treat the people of the host country with respect and in accordance with applicable laws,\u201d the embassy posted on Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking on Asaase Radiio<\/em> Wednesday, Iddrisu Yusif, the Ghanaian who had the confrontation with the man of Middle Eastern origin, said the latter parked at the spot where he sells shoes and after an hour he asked him to move his vehicle, which resulted in the unprovoked attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The trader was disorientated, telling the ABS: \u201cI didn\u2019t do anything wrong to him \u2026 I\u2019m not feeling good at all, and I don\u2019t know why. I don\u2019t know what is happening to me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yusif said he has reported the case to the police.
