The lady sensing danger attempted to leave the room but Boakye followed and assaulted her at the door.
She said the lady started shouting and this attracted other people to the scene.A case of assault was reported at DOVVSU and Boakye was granted bail to report later.The accused however, reported once at the unit and never went back.
Days after, the investigator in the case called the suspect and he insulted her on the phone and when the station officer of DOVVSU also called, Boakye retorted, "1 have not killed a human being so why are you disturbing me."The PRO said on Friday, June 27, this year, the investigator spotted Boakye around Kaneshie and confronted him but Boakye became infuriated and assaulted the investigator and tore her uniform. The investigator reported the conduct of Boakye to her superiors and Boakye was subsequently arrested and charged, this time for assaulting a public officer.Source: The Mirror
