The Police Service has rejected claims by the Ghana Bar Association (GBA) that there is an upsurge in crime in the country.
“We wish to assure the public that there is no upsurge in crime. The Service is on top of the security situation I the country,” the Police said in a statement Monday.
The GBA in a statement on their murdered colleague said crime is on the rise in the country and urged the security agencies to do more to arrest the killers of their colleague and other crimes.
“We humbly and respectfully implored the relevant security agencies to carry out swift and thorough investigations of the incident in order to identify the perpetrators of this heinous crime and make them face the full rigours of the law”, the GBA said in a statement also announcing a GHC20,000 bounty for information on the murder.
The Police statement said they are on top of security situations in the country and have already arrested suspects in connection with the killing.
