However, the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) in a press release indicated that the videos circulating on social media about security officials attacking civilians are false.
In the statement signed by the Director of Public Directions of the Ghana Armed Forces, Colonel Eric Aggrey-Quarshie explained that the videos circulating on social media are old and some doctored.
“The deliberate circulation of unrelated and doctored social media material is orchestrated by certain individuals with the objective of casting the security agencies in the ongoing operation in a bad light”, the statement read.
This comes after some security agencies have been accused of assaulting civilians who flouted the lockdown rules declared by President Akufo Addo to curb the spread of the deadly Coronavirus.
