The Parliamentary Committee, chaired by Abuakwa South lawmaker Samuel Atta Akyea, has recommended sanctions for three senior police officers—COP Alex George Mensah, Supt. George Lysander Asare, and Supt. Emmanuel Eric Gyedi—caught on tape plotting to remove the Inspector-General of Police.
The report cites their misconduct under Section 17(d) of the Police Service Act, 1970 (Act 350) and Regulation 82(1)(c) of the Police Service Regulations, 2012 (C.I 76), which prohibit engaging in activities likely to involve political controversy or taking improper advantage of their positions.
The findings have been communicated to the President to determine appropriate sanctions.
