Police have been called to put the situation under control
The confusion almost sullied the launch of Fetu Afahye, this year, when angry youths besieged Ato Austin gardens and disrupted work for about an hour.
The 200-strong Ntsin community group, dressed in red and armbands, accused the Omanhen, Osabarima Kwesi Atta II, and regional minister, Kwamena Duncan, of having turned their back on the youth.
It took the intervention of armed police, deployed from the regional headquarters, to bring the situation under control.
The police remained on guard until the end of the program.
Anarfo Market
A source told The Daily Graphic that on Tuesday morning, community members spotted a stranger, presumed to be in an unstable state, under a shed at Anarfo Market.
Market women and young men were confronted with this stranger, who was also carrying a travel bag, and grabbed his cell phone.
The residents then called a number on the phone to which a man, who had introduced himself as a brother from abroad, had answered.
They then asked him to come and take the stranger, whom he claimed to be his brother.
According to the source, the driver informed the brother of a taxi that he had chartered that he had to seek police protection because the residents could be unruly.
On the basis of these tips, the man went to the police who had accompanied him to the Anarfo market.
Removal
Immediately after the police arrived, she launched a raid and arrested four of the youths because they thought it was a kidnapping case.
They were taken to court in the Cape Coast Circuit Court, which placed the four men in custody yesterday at 3 May.
The arrest and the pre-trial detention of the four people enraged the residents who left the court to go to the Durbar field and tried to stop the prosecution.
Reinforcements from the armed police were then called to restore calm and order and allow the continuation of the program.
