A young Circuit Court Judge at the Adenta Court Complex in Accra, Angela Attachie, has accused four police officers of harassing her instead of protecting her as they're mandated to.
Her claims follow recent reports suggesting that she influenced the detention of four police officers by the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Christian Tetteh Yohonu, after the officers reportedly attempted to arrest her in December 2024 for allegedly violating traffic regulations in the Adentan Municipality.
Speaking to journalists on Tuesday, 22 April, Judge Attachie, who also serves as Queen of Ho Bankoe of Asogli State in the Volta Region, said the officers were detained following her recent petition to the Police Headquarters.
She explained that the officers were detained due to the alleged harassment and assault on her Clerk in December 2024, and that neither she nor the current IGP are influencing the case in any negative way but are only seeking justice.
