The Ghana Police Service has denied allegations that they neglected Police Inspector Alfred N. Kuzaa, who is receiving treatment at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital after sustaining gunshot wounds during the December 7, 2024, general elections in Atebubu, Bono East Region.
According to the police, they have taken all necessary steps to ensure Inspector Kuzaa receives the best medical care. They have followed the medical team’s instructions and directions, and the officer has undergone required surgeries, all covered by the Police Administration under the Police Emergency Medical Intervention Fund (PERMIF).
The Ashanti Regional Police Director of Welfare has been working closely with Inspector Kuzaa’s family and the medical team, providing essential support and serving as the primary liaison between the Police Service and the family.
The police have categorically stated that the publication of neglect is false and have invited the public to disregard and treat it with contempt. They wish Inspector Kuzaa a speedy recovery and salute all police officers who put their lives on the line to maintain peace in the country.
