The Ghana Police Service wishes to refute claims that some police officers broke into the house of Mr Ernesto Taricone, of Trasacco Limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The facts are that Police conducted an investigation into alleged handguard activities at Adjiriganor, a suburb of Accra which led to the arrest of five suspects; Akuribilla Annanfo, Razak Seidu, Abdulla Abdul Fatau, Baah Samuel and Francis Agbevedor and the retrieval of a Mossberg pump action gun loaded with ten rounds BB cartridges from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On 26th August 2022, the suspects were arraigned before Circuit Court \u20189\u2019, Accra on charges of Conspiracy to Commit a Crime and engaging in land guard activities. They were remanded by the Court into Police custody to reappear on 30th August 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the course of the investigation, it emerged that Mr Morris Ian of Trasacco Limited contracted the suspects to undertake their illegal activities. The court, therefore, issued a Bench Warrant for his arrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The police acting on information that the suspect was at the residence of Mr. Ernesto Taricone visited the house to execute the warrant. Upon arrival at the home, the police knocked on the door and someone came to attend to them and informed them that Ian Morris was not at the residence at the time. The Police, therefore, left a message for him Morris to report to the police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Police will continue to look for him to execute the Bench Warrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We, therefore, call on the public to disregard and treat with contempt the baseless claims of forceful entry against the police and the purported use of commandoes since the Police Service has no commandos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
