A city guard attached to the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly could face a service inquiry after he was captured assaulting a trader at the Kejetia market, sources say.

In the video the officer is seen kicking the poor market woman as she rolled on the ground. Onlookers were seen attempting to stop the officer who appeared wild in his uniform.

The woman, named as Achiaa is said to have suffered the ordeal in her attempt to prevent the city guard from seizing her goods for trading in an unauthorized area.

The development has sparked uproar amid widespread condemnation. Many are however calling for the arrest of the officer.

Sources at the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly say investigations have been launched into the matter.

“The officer risks being sanctioned if he is found guilty. The woman has been taken to hospital and has since been treated and discharged”, the source said.
