A 28-year-old male posing as a soldier was arrested by the Tumu military detachment in Sissala East municipality and handed over to the police for re-examination.
The alleged false soldier, Ahmed Tijani Abubakari, was arrested on Thursday around 9 am, after visiting the military detachment in full military uniform.
He claimed to have fainted in March 2019 and to have in his possession an amount of more than 2,000 GH ¢.
He was accused of being dressed in military shorts and being misinterpreted after attempting to salute the serving military officers.
According to a military source, Tijani also did not identify his post and his unit, nor was he able to indicate his registration number and the name of his commander.
This reinforced the suspicion of the police officers on duty, who quickly arrested him and then handed him over to the Tumu municipal police.
The military expressed concern over such impostors who could easily defraud unsuspecting people in uniform and advised the public to report such suspicious characters to the appropriate authorities.
Chief Inspector Geoffrey Hor, officer of the Tumu Police Station, said that the young man in question normally travels to the area and stands himself as a military officer until he returns. his arrest.
A search carried out in his room revealed a military bag with a camouflage military uniform, a jacket, two pairs of boots and a Ghanaian pbadport bearing his name and photograph.
Images on his cell phone also showed Tijani wearing a military uniform, while others represented him holding an badault rifle.
Chief Inspector Hor said that provisional charges of identity theft and possession of unauthorized military equipment were being brought against him while the investigation was continuing.
The presence of the military detachment in Tumu, east and west of Sissala, stems from the presence of Burkinabe immigrants and alleged terrorist threats from Burkina Faso.
Troops patrol the border from Hamile through Fielmuo, through Gwollu, Kupulima, Kbadana, Banu and Pido, to protect citizens from harm.
