The Minority in Parliament have demanded that the Ghana Police Service furnish them with crime records in the country over the last thirty six months.
Speaking to Citi News, Minority leader, Haruna Iddrisu noted that policy and planning for the country can only be effective if the Police annually update Parliament with crime records.
“The failure on the part of the police to provide the data has adversely affected public policy and planning. For the Ghana Police service, since 2017/2018, we have not seen that happen [the release of crime data].”
“For crime statistics we need it. What is the level of crime in Ghana; armed robber, rape, incest, all that. It guides us as a country on how to deal with matters of recidivism and others,” the Minority leader said.
