A committee has been established by the Ghana Prison Service (GPS) to look into claims made by two former inmates against some personnel at the Nsawam Medium Security Prisons.
The service will not defend any officer found guilty of any of the claims, according to a statement made and signed by Superintendent Yaa Prempeh Sifah, Acting Chief Public Relations Officer, GPS. Any act that violates the Service’s norms and regulations will be dealt with properly.
It emphasized that the Service valued its integrity and reputation and would not tolerate actions that harmed its image.
The statement said the Service was committed to safe custody, humane treatment, reformation, rehabilitation, and reintegration of inmates to make them responsible, productive, and law-abiding to ensure public safety.
