Ghanaian police officers steal €7,000 from Italian couple

Four Ghanaian police officers are being investigated for allegedly stealing €7,000 from an Italian couple at Osu in the capital, Accra.

The couple Daniele Migfiorisi and Ferien Oklomode accused the law enforcers of theft after they were stopped for a random search on Monday, December 23, 2019, on their way to the airport to fly to Italy.

The four accused police officers are Cpl Amos Dery of Osu Motorbike patrols, Cpl Morgan Adjierah of RCID, Cpl John Alaldago of Bravo Rover Unit and Const. Lawson K.  Makafui of Mounted Squadron.
