It has emerged that the embattled Senior Police Officer, ACP Dr. Benjamin Agordzo who is facing treason charges once had a problem with the Ghana Police Service in 2007 leading to his removal, Kasapafmonline.com has learnt.

The Outspoken Police Officer was said to have appealed to the Police Council over the punitive measure meted out to him, following which the Council reversed the decision.

However, ACP Dr. Agordzo had his rank reduced.

It is unclear what the former Director of the Transformation Office of the Ghana Police Service did to warrant that action against him.

The Kaneshie District Court on Friday, November 8, 2019, remanded him into police custody and is being held at the Ministries Police Station.

ACP Dr. Benjamin Agordzo was picked up on Monday, November 4, 2019.

Already, senior military officer Colonel Samuel Kojo Gameli and a civilian employee of the Ghana Armed Forces Gershun Akpa, have been charged for their role in what the government describes as an “elaborate plot targeted at the Presidency.”
