Police arrest two persons for holding pool party at West Legon

Two persons have been arrested for defying the lockdown and ban on public gathering directives by organising a pool party at West Legon in Accra.

The party, which was held to mark one of the reveller’s birthday, was held amid the Coronavirus-induced partial lockdown of Accra.

The birthday celebrant and one of the hosts of the party were arrested and are being investigated by the Kwabenya Police.

In an interview on Accra-based radio station, Citi FM, the Commanding Officer for the Accra Regional Joint COVID-19 Operating Centre, Chief Superintendent Raymond Adofiam, said the police disrupted the party after a tip-off.

He said there were about 15 revellers at the party when they arrived at the scene.

“Upon a follow-up, we chanced on this particular one and it happened to be true so they were arrested. They are currently being investigated by the Kwabenya Police,” he said.
