Psychologists have been sent to work on all those who witnessed the killing of the two Police officers in Kasoa last week.
The Director-General of the Public Affairs Directorate, ACP David Eklu, said this is to reduce the emotional trauma they are going through.
Speaking on GBC’s Current Affairs Programme, ‘Focus’, ACP Eklu said following the unfortunate killing of the two officers, security in Kasoa and its environs have been stepped up to protect lives and property.
ACP David Eklu however warned that anyone who kills or attacks any Police Officer, the entire Police administration will descend on such individual or group.
He said any attack on any officer is an attack on the state and the country’s democracy and the Police administration will not allow that to happen.
Among the many witnesses is a 13-year-old girl whose worried mother said is still traumatised by the incident.
She said her daughter is now unable to sleep at night as her son cries anytime he sees strangers.
