206 police recruits who were undergoing training at the Pwalugu will face criminal prosecution

We will prosecute sacked cop recruits - Police PRO
Superintendent Cephas Arthur, Director of Public
Affairs of the Ghana Police Service, has said that
some of the dismissed 206 police recruits who were
undergoing training at the Pwalugu Police Training
School in the Upper East Region will face criminal
prosecution for forging documents used in their
application.
The police administration on Friday, 3 February
sacked the recruits for falling short of their
academic requirement

A letter to that effect signed by Mrs Beatrice
Vib-Sanziri, Commissioner of Police,
Director-General/Human Resource Department, to the
Officer Commanding PPSTS, Pwalugu, stated ‘’I
am directed by the Inspector General of Police to
inform you to withdraw from training all recruits
who do not meet the required academic
qualification as follows: Only BECE Certificates
(44), BECE and NVTI (22),NVTI 22, BECE and NABPTEX
(7), NABPTEX 2, WASSCE 15, City and Guilds 1 and
No Certificate 1.’’

Cephas Arthur speaking on Abusua Nkomo hosted by
Kwame Adinkra said ”They are definitely going
home; not just that, the law will deal with them
as well.”

”The administration has decided to enforce the
law against them especially those who forged
documents to deceive a public officer. They will
face the law.”

He added ”We took all certificates to WAEC to be
properly checked and after doing so we realized
some the certificates presented by the new
recruits were forged and the police decision to
deal with them for their unlawful acts.”
