In a Citi News<\/strong> interview, the Public Relations Officer of the Accra Regional Police Command ASP Effia Tenge said the two suspects will be arraigned for violating the Public Order Act as the demonstration was carried out without notifying any authorities.<\/p>\n\u201cRegarding yesterday\u2019s [Monday’s] unannounced demonstration of some sympathizers believed to be NPP supporters, the police quickly moved in and we have been able to arrest two persons. We are making all efforts to prosecute them for that conduct.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are guided by laws. We are guided by the public order act in this particular case. The Act tells us that if you want to embark on any form of protest, any public event of this nature, you quickly have to notify the police,\u201d ASP Tenge said.<\/p>\n
