The Police Administration has given a 10-day ultimatum to two Police officers, to find the seven suspected criminals who escaped<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>from the Denu Police Station last Friday.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”ShZlzDVbuP9BgRrFJdKN5NpsB7uPFN8B”]The two officers, whose names are being withheld, were on duty when the suspected criminals escaped from the cell and made away with two AK47\u00a0rifles.<\/p>\n

The situation has created fear and panic among residents<\/strong><\/span><\/a> in the Denu township.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Citi News,<\/strong> the Volta Regional Police Commander, DCOP Peter King Gyinae disclosed that his outfit has gotten hold of the photographs of the suspects and are currently being published for onward circulation.<\/p>\n

He also stated that copies of the photographs have been sent across to \u201cour colleagues across the border and they have also promised that they will circulate them and assist us.\u201d<\/p>\n

DCOP Gyinae\u00a0indicated that despite the efforts being made by the Police administration, the two officers must ensure the seven criminals are apprehended within the 10-day period given.<\/p>\n

Failure to do so, the two will be made to face the full wrath of the Police Administration.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have processes when these things come and one of the processes is that we allow them some days to look for them and if they don\u2019t get them and then the other processes will follow so we are following the processes,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Interior Minister, Mark Woyongo has issued a warning<\/strong> <\/span><\/a>that any Police personnel found to have aided the suspects to escape will be severely punished.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me assure you that, these things are bound to happen from time to time. It is an indication that we need to alert, vigilant, we need to caution our people to be vigilant and duty conscious. In fact, the Police High Command will investigate this, \u00a0\u00a0and people who are found culpable will definitely not be spared,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
