Another individual has been busted for posing as a security officer in the Assin North constituency where a by-election is currently underway.

This comes hours after a military imposter was arrested at a polling station in Assin Breku in the ongoing by-election.

Reports say the suspect was found wearing a shirt that indicated he was a community protection assistant.

But his responses to inquiry revealed his fraudulence after which he was arrested by the Assin Bereku Police command.

Currently, he is in police custody awaiting additional investigation and legal proceedings.

Earlier today, a young man, dressed in full military attire, was apprehended by the police.

According to sources, there were rumors about the man’s presence in a house earlier in the morning, but the police did not immediately take action.

However, he was eventually arrested when he entered the area during the time when the NDC candidate, James Gyakye Quayson, visited to vote.

Officers whisked him into a pick-up truck and drove him off for further investigations.

The police have not yet made any statement regarding the incident.

Some others were also arrested for wearing party paraphernalia within the polling station.

Meanwhile, police presence has been high at the polling stations since the election started this morning.
