Two Police officers have been captured in a viral video flogging a suspect with their belts.
The Police officers were captured in a video taken by the complainant who had reported the suspect, his employee, for stealing his GHS1,600.
The suspect who was stripped down to his boxers and handcuffed was tortured by the policemen with the aim of getting him to confess to the crime.
Despite cries for help and mercy, the policemen continued to flog the suspect.
Ghana on 26 September 2016 ratified the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture and other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment making torture illegal in the country.

Eeiii asem nie Ghana, lawlessness paa nie... Police who should know better behaving like that. What kind of training/legal education do the police academy give to them before they pass out. What happened to 'innocent until proven guilty'. It looks like anyone can report anything to the police and they will act upon it without investigating.... very sad.
A lot of such bad and irresponsible behaviour by some Gh Police Officers go on everyday. This is just one that was recorded and leaked. There are scores more we never hear of. Shay, shay, shay....shame to these police officers. You have disgraced your families.
Did these police officers are real policemen, are we in military regime? These policemen should be dealt with.
