Police launch investigation into destruction of structure at Pusiga
The Ghana Police Service has launched an investigation into the destruction of a structure at Pusiga in the Upper East Region.
The incident occurred on Saturday, June 22, 2024, after some youth caused a disturbance in the community.
According to police, some authorities in the community suggested that the incident was not due to political rivalry as seen in a viral video on social media.
In a post on X on June 23, the Service clarified that the destruction was a result of a misunderstanding between the youth and certain elders in the community.
“Engagement with some authorities in the community so far suggest the destruction of the structure is not due to political rivalry as claimed in the viral video,”
The police urged the public to avoid spreading misinformation that could cause fear and panic within the community.
Meanwhile, the police says they have collaborated with stakeholders to apprehend those responsible for both the damage and the dissemination of false information.
“The police are working with all stakeholders in the community to get the matter resolved while efforts are ongoing to get the perpetrators behind the destruction and the disinformation arrested to face justice.”
