The Ghana Police Service has arrested six persons suspected to have \nplayed roles in the murder of the journalist Ahmed Hussein Suale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The undercover journalist was shot dead at Madina in Accra on January 16, this year<\/a>.
The suspects have been interrogated, their statements taken and released on police enquiry bail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Director General in charge of Public Affairs of the Police \nService, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Mr David Eklu, who made \nthis known in Kumasi yesterday, however, declined to mention the names \nof the suspects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the six, he said, the police had also given statement \nforms to Mr Kennedy Agyapong, Mr Kwasi Nyantakyi and Anas Aremeyaw Anas,\n all suspects in the case, to be filled and returned to the police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artist\u2019s impression<\/strong><\/ins>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Eklu, who was in the Ashanti Region to brief the media on the \nPolice Administration\u2019s communication strategy, said the police were \nlooking for a cartographer to give them an artist\u2019s impression of the \nperpetrators as had been given to them by eyewitnesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn addition, the police are still processing the information picked \nfrom the eyewitnesses,\u201d he said, and assured the public that the service\n would leave no stone unturned in its bid to arrest the perpetrators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He appealed to the media to take their personal security seriously \nand always be conscious of their surroundings and not to take anything \nfor granted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Communication policy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Touching on the new Communication Policy of the Ghana Police Service \nwhich was designed with the assistance of the European Union, he said \nthe leadership of the Police Administration had been trained on how to \ndeal with the media and accord them the necessary assistance and \nrespect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The media, he observed, were very important in democratic policing, \nas they served as the link between the public and the service and also \nhelped the service by providing information to fight crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said henceforth the police would no longer allow the media to take\n pictures of suspects arrested in swoops and accident victims, \nespecially the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police-media relations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr Eklu said the police would soon introduce a course in police-media\n relations to be taught at police training schools to prepare the \nofficers on how to deal with the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That way, he said, the personnel would be in a position to handle the media appropriately and reduce the tension between the two bodies that needed to coexist to further the welfare of society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
