Earlier this week, the Ministry of National Security took some steps to deal with some of its operatives who were mentioned in the Caleb Kudah case.
The National Security has established in its investigations that the arrest and assault of the Citi News journalist by the Director of Operations at the National Security, Lieutenant Colonel Frank Agyeman, violated the Ministry’s operating standards.
In a report filed by CitiNews, the security outfit, therefore, decided to withdraw Lt. Colonel Frank Agyeman from the National Security.
Caleb Kudah was arrested for filming some abandoned cars at the Ministry of National Security, a supposed restricted security zone.
He was at the Ministry to verify a claim by an official of MASLOC that all the cars had been given out, following complaints about the wastage of public funds on social media.
