A member of journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas\u2019 private investigation company Tiger Eye PI, has been rescued by police in the Northern Regional capital Tamale, after he was abducted Saturday morning.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”pbwFMhXF0VoxUTlBLLAvDTCYCW0dtjp0″]Ishmael Hussein, who is now in the care of the police, was rescued after news of his kidnap got to the Inspector General of Police, \u00a0IGP Mohammed Alhassan.<\/p>\n
Unconfirmed reports suggest the police have arrested one of the kidnappers with several of them on the run.<\/p>\n
It is unclear what the motive for the failed kidnap could be, coming on the heels of the widespread corruption exposed in the judiciary by Anas and his team.<\/p>\n
Police have however commenced investigations into the incident.<\/p>\n
Ghana\u2019s judiciary is currently under massive scrutiny as 22 lower court judges who were captured in Anas\u2019 investigative video allegedly taking bribes, are being\u00a0questioned after their suspension.<\/p>\n
Some seven out of 12 High Court judges, who were also implicated, have been suspended by President John Mahama after the Chief Justice established a prima facie case against them.<\/p>\n
Over 80 staff of the judicial service and staff of the police, prisons and the Attorney-General\u2019s Department, were also captured on the video and are being investigated.<\/p>\n
President Mahama and the Chief Justice, have served notice that anyone found culpable after investigations are completed would be prosecuted.
