The suspected police officers implicated in the leaked tape, recorded by the former Northern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Daniel Bugri Naabu, have appeared before the ad-hoc parliamentary committee investigating the matter.
The leaked audio recording captures an alleged plot to remove the Inspector General of Police (IGP), George Akuffo-Dampare, ahead of the 2024 elections.
The authenticity of the contentious audio was confirmed by Mr. Naabu during his appearance before the ad-hoc parliamentary committee on Monday, August 28, 2023.
Bugri Naabu disclosed that he commissioned someone to record the leaked tape on his behalf, with the intention of presenting it to President Nana Akufo-Addo.
The three police officers involved in the audio are COP George Alex Mensah, Superintendent Asare and Superintendent Emmanuel Gyebi.
