Takoradi regional office of the National Reconciliation Commission has received 27 new cases since the commission began public hearing two weeks ago

Mr Kwadjo Dickson, an official of the zonal office, announced this in an interview with the GNA.

He said this brings the number of cases so far reported to the zone office to 551. The cases have been forwarded to the commission's head office in Accra and are being investigated for public hearing.

He said the zonal office is continuing its outreach programme in the Western and Central regions.

Mr Dickson said the programme is intended to give people who for some reasons could not go to the Commission's offices to present their cases.
