The Ghana Police Service has denied declaring the Deputy Communications Officer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Malik Basintale wanted.

This comes after claims circulating on social media that Malik Basintale has been declared wanted.

The police in a release on Facebook clarified that no such directive has been issued and labelled the claims as entirely "false".

They therefore urge the public to disregard it and treat it with the contempt it deserves.
