Private legal practitioner Martin Kpebu has described his arrest by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) as unnecessary, following a heated confrontation with a soldier on the premises.
Speaking on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, he said his visit on Wednesday was the third time he had gone to the OSP in relation to his corruption allegations against the Special Prosecutor.
Kpebu explained that while on the compound, a soldier suddenly warned him, saying, “Next time you come here and do that, I will show you paa.” He said the warning shocked him.
According to Kpebu, the soldier later insulted him, calling him a “stupid man,” to which he calmly responded by asking what he had done wrong. He stressed that no law prevents him from freely moving on the premises, especially since he is neither an accused person nor a suspect.
He said he had parked inside the OSP yard, as he normally does, and was speaking to the media when a police officer asked him to move. After complying, he returned to the yard only for another officer to complain about where he had parked despite no rules or notices indicating restrictions.
Kpebu insisted that the presence of soldiers at the OSP was questionable, adding that their actions were unjustified.
He was later arrested for allegedly obstructing an OSP officer but was granted bail. He is expected to report again at 11 a.m. today for further investigations related to the obstruction case. A separate date will be set to address his corruption allegations against the Special Prosecutor.
