A police recruit, Sadam Sumaila, is in police custody in Pwalugu for forging documents to gain entry into the Ghana Police Service.
Sumaila, who, until his arrest, was having his training at the Police Training School in the Upper East Region, has been arrested for fraud.
According to reports, Sumaila used a forged Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) certificate to gain entry into the service.
He was apprehended when he complained about the rank he was being trained for, despite having submitted a degree.
Investigations revealed the forged certificate, and upon interrogation, he confessed that it was created in 2020.
