The Defense and Interior Committee of Parliament has recommended that Speaker Alban Bagbin set up a bi-partisan committee to further investigate the chaos that occurred at the Islamic Senior High School in Kumasi.

The Committee, which the Speaker tasked to fact-find the issue, has accused the Police of fabricating lies.

Speaking to journalists on Thursday, 21 July 2022, following the presentation of the committee’s report to Parliament, the Chairman of the Committee Kennedy Agyapong noted that the Police denied entering the school, despite the bullets that were found in some of the dormitories.

He indicated that the Committee had recommended a bi-partisan probe into the matter due to the lies peddled by the police.

According to Mr. Agyapong, when he asked questions, The Inspector was reluctant. He asked several times if the police officers, entered the campus but the police denied entering there.

Meanwhile, the committee has bullets from some of the dormitories that the Police entered.

Thirty-eight students of the school were rushed to the hospital after they clashed with some police during a demonstration weeks ago.

The students were demonstrating against the frequent knockdowns near their school and in their attempts to disperse the demonstrators, the police fired warning shots and tear gas at them.
