The Ghana Immigration Service (GIS) has denied that a suspected armed robber arrested at Sefwi Asawinso in the Western Region is a serving officer of the Service.
According to an official statement issues and signed by Superintendent Michael Amoako-Atta, the Head of the Public Affairs, the suspect, Samuel Akure, was dismissed from the Service on 22nd June, 2020 for deserting his duty post for more than 21 consecutive working days.
The dismissal, he said, was a decision taken by the Central Adjudicating Panel of the GIS after he (Samuel Akure) failed to honour the panel’s invitation to explain why he deserted his post for more two years without permission.
The suspect was reported to have been arrested with three other armed robbers on August 17, 2020.
