‘Woman beater’ cop faces court after assaulting nursing mother

The interdicted officer, Lance Corporal Frederick Amanor who was exposed in a video assaulting, kicking and slapping a customer of the Shiashie branch of Midland Savings and Loans company, is expected to appear in court today, Monday, 23 July 2018.

The victim, Patience Safo, was ruthlessly assaulted by Frederick Amanor while holding a baby.

She had insisted on withdrawing a sum of GH¢250 from the facility as her previous attempts to withdraw the money days back had failed due to a network challenge.

The police officer who was on duty at the financial institution was called to escort her out but ended up beating her in the process.

He punched her powerfully in the face after he was asked to drive her away.

Management of Midland Savings and Loans in a statement has rendered an apology to the customer. The police officer in question has also been arrested and expected to face court today.

However, the President of Policy Think tank IMANI Africa, Franklin Cudjoe is preparing to take legal action against Midland Savings and Loans to court for allowing a police officer to assault a nursing mother at one of their branches in Accra.
