The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service has invited the Bono Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Kwame Baffoe ‘Abronye DC’ for questioning over allegations he allegedly made against former President John Dramani Mahama.
In a petition to the Criminal Investigations Department signed by his lawyer, Tony Lithur, John Mahama said Abronye DC had accused him of plotting to assassinate some members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
He (Abronye DC) reportedly said some NPP personalities will be assassinated by NDC hirelings doing the bidding of the former President.
Former President Mahama reported Kwame Baffoe Abronye to the police for alleging that he had plans to kill some leading members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The former President lodged the complaint on Wednesday, May 6, 2020 at the police headquarters through his lawyers, LithurBrew Company.
Mr Mahama in the petition described the claims as false and urged the CID to probe the NPP Bono Regional Chairman.
“His Excellency, John Dramani Mahama, has firmly instructed me to say that the allegations are, of course, false; and for the avoidance of doubt would like to state that neither the NDC nor he has planned to hire, hired or cause to be hired, or instructed any person or persons to murder or assassinate anybody,” portions of the petition read.
Meanwhile, the CID in an invitation letter signed by its Deputy Director-General, Barima Sasraku II, asked Abroney DC to report to the SIU at 10 am to assist with investigations.
“The Special Investigations Unit (SIU) of the CID Headquarters has commenced investigations into an alleged case of Publication of false news reported by His Excellency Former President John Dramani Mahama against you. You are required to report to Director/SIU on Thursday 21st May 2020 at 10:00 am to assist investigations, please,” the CID invitation letter stated.
