The Ghana Police Service has interdicted Commissioner of Police (COP) Alex George Mensah and 2 others over their alleged involvement in the leaked IGP tape scandal.
The other two officers are Superintendent Emmanuel Eric Gyebi and Superintendent George Lysander Asare.
The interdiction came after the trio appeared before the Parliamentary Committee investigating the scandal and made startling revelations about the police service.
In a statement released on Thursday, September 7 the trio were informed of his interdiction with immediate effect.
The police statement added: "The interdiction is to make way for disciplinary proceedings into their conduct in line with Police Service regulations."
The controversial tape had the police officers and former Northern Regional NPP chairman Bugri Naabu plotting to oust Inspector General of Police Dr. George Akufo-Dampare.
Chief Bugri Naabu has admitted before the Parliamentary Committee probing the leaked tape that the tape is authentic.
He added that he recorded their conversation. But COP Alex Mensah claims parts of the tape were doctored when he took his turn before the Parliamentary Committee currently probing the leaked tape.
The parliamentary ad-hoc committee is currently investigating the matter.
