The Inspector General of Police (IGP), David Asante-Apeatu, has dared the interdicted police officers in the $1.3 million gold scam to sue the police as threatened.
Embattled DSP Emmanuel Basintale, and some other interdicted officers have threatened to seek legal redress following their interdiction.
But commenting on the issue in an interaction with the media after the Interior Minister paid an official visit to the police headquarters, the IGP said, “Who are we to challenge him? That is his democratic right, he may go to court and sue the Ghana Police Service.”
The company at the centre of the gold scam, Green Global Resources, is accusing the police administration of a cover up in the saga.
Meanwhile, the police has disputed the claims indicating that they have been transparent in their investigations regarding the gold scam.
