Police Probe Alleged Attack On NPP Women’s Organiser

The Ghana Police Service has begun investigations into an alleged attack on the life of the Greater Accra Regional Women’s Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

According reports, the alleged attack on Grace Acheampong is said to have occurred on Sunday at about 6:30 pm.

The police, however, say they have visited the scenes and invited the Crime Scene Management Team of the National Criminal Investigations Department to assist in processing, reconstruction, and analysis.

It, however, entreated the general public to volunteer credible information, particularly on suspicious movements and characters in two separate shooting incidents within and around the Roman Ridge neighbourhood on the said date and time to the Nima Police Division.
