Ebenezer Obeng was arrested by the guards for selling shoes on pavements, a claim he has denied.
He is accusing the city guards of burning his shoes and stamping his face with their boots until his ear virtually came off.
Public Relations Officer for the AMA Nuumo Blafo III said although the guards have denied the allegations, the assembly will go ahead with its investigations.
He explained the victim was being led to the AMA’s office at Holy Garden near the Kwame Nkrumah Circle but he turned violent upon reaching the gates.
“They were almost in the yard and then, I think, he started struggling with our personnel so in the process of struggling, his head hit the gate so it is rather the gate that caused the injury,” he explained.
Nuumo Blafo III said the guards will, however, be sanctioned if they are found culpable.
