box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">Police Command undertook a security threat assessment of the proposed common destination, overlapping timelines, and conflicting objectives for the three planned demonstrations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">Per the assessment, it was determined that the three special events, if held around or at the forefront of the Jubilee House, and at the given timelines, especially around the Christmas and New Year Festivities, may endanger public safety, public defence, public order, the running and delivery of essential services and violate the rights and freedoms of other persons among others.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">The Police Command engaged the organizers for the three groups and conveyed the security challenges and concerns to them. The Police Command also indicated its inability to provide security for the three groups to hold their respective special events lasting over 31 days due to the Command\u2019s operational and security engagements during the Christmas and New Year festivities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">The police, therefore, urged the organizers, in the interest of public safety, public defence, and public order, among others, to postpone the holding of their respective special events to any date after 5 January 2024, within which period the Command would be able to provide the demonstrators adequate security.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">The organizers disagreed with the Police Command\u2019s request to postpone the demonstrations to any date after 5 January 2024. They also disagreed with the police on the location and insisted on holding special events around or at the forefront of the Jubilee House.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style: none; margin: 0px 0px 25px; outline: none; padding: 0px;\">Source: <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.asaaseradio.com\/\">www.asaaseradio.com<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The Ghana&nbsp;Police&nbsp;Service (GPS) has secured an injunction at the High Court stopping three pressure groups, Democracy Hub, Patriotic Hub, and Patriotic Forum for Accountable Governance, from going ahead with their plans to protest at the same time, and venue but with different objectives.
