Kasoa ‘Missing Penis’: Don’t Spare Those Involved In The Mob Attacks – Kwamena Duncan Charges Police
Kwamena Duncan has charged the Police to swoop down on persons involved in mob justice on individuals who were falsely accused of “stealing” people’s genital organ.
The claims of disappearance of genitals leading to fear and panic among the public and attacks on innocent residents at Kasoa has become a serious matter of concern.
Male residents in Kasoa over the days have been on alert, especially walking in groups or avoiding busy areas, for fear of their penis going missing.
The missing penis story gained momentum to the extent that some persons were subjected to instant mob attacks following accusations of they masterminding the penis theft.
But the Ghana Police Service has discounted the claims and arrested nine persons for raising false alarm.
“The Ghana Police Service notes with concern this increasing trend of persons making false claims of the disappearance of their genitals and blaming innocent bystanders that sometimes lead to mob attacks. We wish to caution the public against such criminal conduct that is likely to harm innocent people as well as disturb the public peace”, a statement from the Police read.
Addressing the issue on Peace FM’s “Kokrokoo” show, the former Central Minister asked the Police to extend their arrest to the persons who resorted to attacks on others over the false accusations.
“The arrest shouldn’t have been for only those who made the false alarm but also those who engaged in the mob attacks because videos of the incident are evident.
“So, while arresting those making the false alarm, we must look further to those who took the law into their hands and falsely accuse people and as a result beat them with clubs and so forth so that we take it from all sides”, Kwamena expressed.
