At least 16 persons have been declared wanted for their alleged involvement in the violence that characterised the national youth and women’s conference of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) held in Cape Coast over the weekend.
This follows a December 10, 2022 incident after two rival groups violently clashed throwing stones, blocks, sticks, clubs, chairs among others, causing injury to three persons and destruction to property.
However, the intervention of the police brought the situation under control for the processes to continue to the end without any further incident.
Meanwhile, after an initial review of police-specific video footages of the event, 16 suspects have so far been identified for their principal role in the violence and have been declared wanted.
“A GHC 10,000.00 reward has been set aside for any member of the public who can provide credible information to the police that can lead to the arrest of any of the suspects.
“The photographs of the 16 wanted persons extracted from the Police specific-footages are published for the public to assist us in this regard,” the police statement issued on Sunday, December 11, 2022 said.
It noted further that “Investigation is ongoing to further identify and arrest other perpetrators involved in the violence to face justice.”
