The Kumasi High Court has thrown out a lawsuit filed by 40 Chief Inspectors against the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr.
George Akuffo Dampare, over alleged unfair denial of promotion within the Ghana Police Service.
The officers, who have served for 25 to 30 years, argued that they were wrongfully excluded from a special amnesty program that promoted degree-holding officers who obtained their qualifications before 2020.
They claimed that junior colleagues benefitted from the scheme while they were denied entry into the Police Academy, a requirement for promotion to Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP).
