The Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Dr George Akuffo Dampare is expected to appear before the ad-hoc committee probing the alleged tape plotting his removal from office today.
This is to afford him the opportunity to respond to certain allegations levelled against him by some earlier witnesses who happen to senior police officers.
According to Chairman of the committee, Samuel Atta Akyea, the session which will have all earlier witnesses back to testify together with their lawyers, will be held in-camera.
“On Tuesday, all the individuals (Chief Daniel Bugri Naabu, Supt. George L. Asare, (COP) George Alex Mensah, and Supt. Emmanuel Eric Gyebi) … will come back with their lawyers.”
“Also, the most prominent person whose name has been bandied about, the IGP himself should also come with his lawyers.” He added in an interview with Accra based Joy FM as monitored by adwoaadubianews.com.
Explaining the reason for the in-camera decision, he said, “some serious allegations have been made in public, but the substance of the allegations has not been made in public. That is to say, the evidential support for those allegations is what we are going to unearth, so which piece of evidence that we’ll give to the public that will not hurt national security, we’ll exercise that discretion.”
