The Ghana Police Service has assured the general public that Evelyn Boakye, a Ghanaian kitchen staffer whose face was forcefully dipped into a paste of pepper by her Lebanese supervisor, Jihad Chaaban, at Marwako Fast Food, will receive justice.

The Public Relations Officer of the Accra Regional Police Command, ASP Afia Tenge, has revealed that the police will be meeting Evelyn on Tuesday, 7 March, and consider the action to be taken on the matter.

She told Chief Jerry Forson, host of Ghana Yensom, on Accra100.5FM on Tuesday: “We are meeting them, the victim, today. We will also meet the management of Marwarko depending on what the regional commander will deem fit. I will be very glad if this matter will be used as a test case because one cannot be treated this way in his or her own country by a foreigner or even Ghanaian.

“On our part as police, I can assure you that we are doing everything within every legitimate length to ensure that justice is served to this lady.”
