More than hundred police officers serving under the Ghana Police Service have been dismissed by the Police Administration.

According to the Public Relations Officer,(PRO) of the Ghana Police Service, Supritendent Cephas Arthur, their sack follows various offences committed by them.

Speaking on Adom FM’s Morning Show “Dwaso Nsem” Wednesday, he noted that the affected officers were implicated in acts of corruption and other offences, including robbery.

“They were fired by the Police Administration for acts of indiscipline under police disciplinary code of conduct, extortion, bad treatment to members of the public and etc.”

Supt. Cephas Arthur indicated that about 105 were expelled from the Police Service, including various ranks.

He revealed that those at the lower ranks were the worst culprits affected by the disciplinary actions.

Supt. Cephas Arthur said the development underlines the enforcement of the Police’s zero tolerance for corruption and related malpractices, as well as indiscipline in the force as it continues to professionalize the Police force.
