Deputy Commissioner of Police Roy Amuni, said on Monday that there were some faceless individuals behind the constant \u201cfoot soldiers\u201d demands and actions including towing auctioned vehicles from government departments.
\nHe warned the \u201cfoot soldiers\u201d and their patrons to desist from their acts and said \u201cwhen we get them, they will face the music,\u201d describing their act as criminal and must not be entertained.
\nMr Amuni told the GNA in an interview that the police had drawn up strategies in getting the \u201cfoot soldiers\u201d arrested, adding that the police always got to the scene of crime late with the perpetrators bolting away. \u201cThe \u2018foot soldiers\u2019 are behaving like spoilt children who do not realize the harm they are causing to themselves\u2026they are being push and when we get hold of them, we will know who are behind them\u201d, he said.
\nMr Amuni said the police initially suspected \u201cAzoka\u2019s group\u201d to be behind the foot soldiers activities in the region but this turned out to be false after investigations. He advised the \u201cfoot soldiers\u201d to use appropriate means of acquiring the vehicles if indeed they were interested in them adding \u201cit is surprising that the foot soldiers may not even be able to buy the vehicles when given the chance.\u201d
\n\u201cEverybody is fed-up with the escapist of the \u2018foot soldiers\u2019 and when they mean to battle with the police, then it will be a disaster for them\u201d, Mr Amuni said adding that the threat of the \u201cfoot soldiers\u201d to the police that the police cannot do anything to them were empty ones.
\nHe said the police were constrained in arresting them because the police do not know them and appealed to the public to volunteer information to the police to arrest them. Mr Amuni said some of the vehicles belonging to the Tamale Teaching Hospital had been abandoned and had been taken to the hospital.
\nHe Amuni said all the attacks of the foot soldiers were under investigation and the culprits would be dealt with in accordance with the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
