Private legal practitioner and a member of the Convention People's Party (CPP), Kwame Jantuah, has raised alarm over what he describes as a growing loss of public trust and respect for the .

Reacting to recent attacks against journalists on TV3's New Day on Friday, August 1, Jantuah said the inability of the police to assert their authority has led to frequent reliance on the military in matters that should ordinarily fall within the police's domain. "Sometimes I don't understand why we invite the army into civilian operations.
It goes to show that the police have lapsed in their responsibility as a service.
