After stopping him to demand papers which he couldn’t provide, they asked him to step down which he tried escaping under the pretext of being a police officer.
He stepped out of the car eventually in a police uniform with the name “Laryea” written on it.
Meanwhile, he had already informed the police he is called Isaac Osei.
Isaac removed some SIM cards from his phone and chewed them before the police officers during the interrogation according to OnuaOnline’s sources.
He later confessed he is not an officer but rather took a friend who is a policeman’s uniform, after another uniform was found in the car.
He is currently assisting the police with investigations at the Awutu Bereku police cells.
