A committee established to investigate the arrest of journalist, Caleb Kudah, and subsequent invasion of Citi FM premises has found the national security officer and the police involved guilty of inappropriate conduct.
A statement from the Ministry of National Security said the actions of Lieutenant Colonel Frank Agyeman (Director of Operations) who led the team contravenes its standard operating procedures.
It indicated that the secondment of Lieutenant Colonel Frank Agyeman at the Ministry has therefore been reversed and is to report to the Chief of Defence Staff for further investigation and appropriate action.
