candidate for the Thursday, 31 January 2019 Ayawaso West Wuogon by-election, Mr Delali Kwasi Brempong, without a search warrant duly issued by the court, the Emile Short Commission of Inquiry set up by President Nana Akufo-Addo which probed the gun violence that marred the by-poll, has said in its report.<\/p>\n<p>The masked men stormed La-Bawaleshie during the by-election and fired gunshots into a crowd of supporters of the NDC injuring 16 of them.<\/p>\n<p>They had stormed the area upon intelligence that there was a cache of arms at a warehouse in the opposition candidate\u2019s house.<\/p>\n<p>According to the 62-page report, excerpts of which ClassFMonline.com is privy to, the Commission observed that \u201cat the time the intelligence was received and the operation planned, there was sufficient time to secure a search warrant whose issuance would have ensured that the operation was conducted in accordance with law\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It continued: \u201cIn a democratic regime such as Ghana\u2019s, the requirement of Chapter 5 of the Constitution on fundamental human rights require that the subjection of the privacy of a person\u2019s home to intrusive searches be carried out under the superintendence of law and judicial oversight, hence the need for a court order in this case\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Commission also called for the dissolution of the SWAT team at the office of National Security.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Commission recommends that the SWAT team of the National Security Council Secretariat should be disbanded and operatives be reassigned as appropriate,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<p>It added: \u201cThe Commission further recommends that support for special operations should be sought from the specialised units of the police directly
