Six suspected troublemakers were arrested by the Accra Regional Police Command during Sunday's presidential run-off for allegedly attempting to disrupt voting at some polling stations. The six were arrested in a private car at a polling station at Chorkor. According to a police source, the arrest of the suspects was based on information received by the police that some macho men were going round in a private car intimidating and terrorising people around Jamestown. The source said a police and military patrol team was quickly dispatched to the area but the suspects had already left the scene for another area. It said the team decided to patrol the area where the suspects were terrorising people at Chorkor and arrested them in the act. Upon interrogation, the source said, the suspects claimed they could not locate their polling stations and were, therefore, moving from one station to another in search of their names in the voters register. According to the source, there were similar arrests of some troublemakers who could not locate their names in the register and when electoral officers advised them to check from other polling stations, they refused, thereby creating confusion. It said most of them were cautioned and released to enable them to go back to cast their votes. Meanwhile, the Military High Command says it has monitored a report in the media about a military helicopter landing at Denu in the Volta Region last Sunday with the allegation that the presence of the helicopter in the area~ was to swap ballot boxes and convey some away. In a statement issued in Accra, the command said it received reports of a chaotic situation in Denu where security personnel and some party agents were allegedly chased out of their respective polling stations. "As a result, reinforcement was requested for to stabilise the situation," it said. The statement said the High Command, therefore, authorised the dispatch of a helicopter, "which was the fastest means of conveying troops", to Denu and the remainder of the troops were sent by road. It emphasised that the troops had not been sent to Denu to collect ballot boxes or swap them, as alleged by some media houses, and asked all media houses to be circumspect in their reportage at this crucial time.
