He complained that the driver was allowed to go without he being questioned adding that no statement was taken from him.
“The Policemen at the station took turns slapping me and beating me with batons until I had marks and my skin turned reddish, my back and elbow all turned redish. They then threw me in the cells,” he told Ultimatefmonline.com.
Matthew Boamah recounts the incident occurred around 7pm and he was only released between the hours of 10 and 11 pm after being forced to pay GHC100 cedis to “bail himself”.
He indicated that the police again took GHC20 from him.
