Many injured as soldiers clash with Prison officers at Bawku

The military operations team in Bawku on Wednesday afternoon clashed with the Prison Officers in the area leaving many people seriously injured.

The incident happened at the Bawku Naba Palace when the overlord of the Kusaug Traditional Area was inaugurating his 40 years of reign as the Bawku Naba.

Reports alleged that, the military sometime back, beat up some Prisons officers in the area after a disagreement and that has led to an old grudge between the two camps.
