A Warrant Officer has been arrested for attempting to blackmail a 17-year-old to having sex with him.
WOI Asiedu after persuading the teenager to send him nude photos, demanded sex, threatening to splash the nude photos on social media.
The pestering left the girl depressed and suicidal, journalist with Takoradi-based Skyy Power FM Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson told Myjoyonline.com.

The teenager confided in a relative who contacted the journalist, Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson. Some National Security Operatives were informed and a plot to arrest the officer was hatched.
“We then asked the girl to feign interest in the sexual intercourse,” the journalist told Myjoyonline.com.
