Director-General of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Commissioner of Police (COP) Ken Yeboah has bemoaned the abuse of the Police emergency lines by some citizens.
The Police capo addressing the rapid response given to emergencies through their emergency lines disclosed to journalists that some persons call without any emergencies but to verbally insult officers.
He shot down claims that Police emergency lines are not operational and not effective.
He was speaking at a press briefing on Wednesday, June 30, 2021.
“Some also abuse it. They call and then they start to insult us. People call and just insult you. They call just to attack and call our officers’ foolish people.”
He urged Ghanaians to respect the Police saying: “as Ghanaians, we need to respect the Police. We are here to protect you. You call, instead of you to give us the right information, you rather insult us.”
The CID boss said others also call to divert the attention of the Police during criminal activities.
“Please let us respect the system we have put in place to ensure that we get the necessary protection,” he concluded.
