Francis Xavier Sosu, lawmaker for Madina constituency has said he has instructed his lawyers to sue the Ghana Police Service for what he termed ‘needless attack’ on him.
Sosu after leading a demonstration with his constituents has been wanted by the police for unlawful protest.
His personal bodyguard has also been interdicted for recklessly driving into a crowd after a protest on the Ayi Mensah-Danfa Road, endangering the lives of two senior officers and other civilians.
In a statement he said “As I wait patiently for the position that the Parliamentary Leadership may take on these matters, I have instructed my Lawyers to institute Human Rights Actions against the Ghana Police Service and all legitimate actions to ward off this needless attack on me and on my work as a Member of Parliament and my Personal Bodyguard Inspector Daniel AGBAVOR.”
“The Police Administration has nothing to investigate about this demonstration. The police were part of the demonstration from the beginning till the end. There were no casualties, no destruction of public or private property. The police attempt to arrest is a deliberate attempt to reduce my confidence and my articulation of the need of my people. I won’t stop fighting for the people of Madina. We will organize further multiple peaceful protests because it is our constitutional duty to do so to hold the government accountable,” he wrote.
