The Ghana Police Service, Bono East Regional Command, has confirmed that calm has been restored in Kwame Danso following a violent attack on the District Court and Police Headquarters on Wednesday, December 10, 2025.
According to the police in a statement, around 100 youths stormed the Kwame Danso District Court while it was in session, vandalizing property and forcibly freeing two accused persons who were standing trial. The mob also assaulted the complainant in the case.
