The Ghana Police Service has launched an investigation into an incident at the premises of Metro TV in Accra earlier today, Wednesday, November 27.

It was a court bailiff accompanied by police personnel who went to the premises of Metro TV to execute a court order, the Ghana Police Service has explained.

In a statement the Police urged the public, especially Metro TV’s management and staff, to remain calm and fully cooperate with authorities as investigations continue.

“We appeal to the public, particularly the management and staff of Metro TV, to remain calm and assist the Police in their ongoing investigation,” the Police statement read.

The police statement was a clarification to earlier reports that suggested that some armed men had attacked Metro TV and in the process injured private security officers who had sought to prevent them from gaining full access to the premises of the Accra-based television station.
