Ace broadcaster, Bridget Otoo, has expressed her disappointment in one Patrick Asiedu, who accused officers of the Ghana Police Service of planting narcotics in his car.

This comes after recent findings from the Police prove that "the entire story narrated in the audio tape (by Patrick Asiedu) is false and a total fabrication by the suspect."

In a viral audio recording, Patrick Asiedu, who has now been identified as an Uber driver and not a doctor as being purported, said some police officers framed him of possessing weed and cocaine last week Friday while on the Trasacco road while on his way home to Kwashieman.

“One of the officers, who is a Muslim swore that he could never plant drugs in a car. Then another officer started crying, saying that we are very sorry. We planted it in his car,” he was heard in parts of the audio saying.

The matter received massive reaction on social media, which drew the attention of the Police administration.

In a press statement dated January 18, the Police noted that its preliminary investigations into the matter provide information contrary to what Patrick Asiedu has brought out to the public.

"Investigations into the matter and our initial checks at the stations mentioned in the audio, East Legon and the Accra Central Police Stations, have revealed that no such complaint had been made there.”

"The Police have also contacted the Narcotics Control Commission and the Ghana Armed Forces and both institutions have indicated that no such incident has come to their attention," the statement added.

The Police in a statement on Thursday indicated that Patrick Asiedu, who has been arrested and in police custody, fabricated the story and alleged that the incident he narrated was not a personal experience but that of one of his passengers.

Reacting to the recent development, Bridget Otoo condemned Patrick Asiedu, who she described as a "fool" for destroying the tiniest opportunity for true victims of such incident to share their experience and be taken for their word.

She noted that falsely accusing the police on such sensitive issues would only embolden the corrupt officers who engage in unlawful activities.

"The police have found one scapegoat, they will milk everything out of him and I expect them to. We use our platform to advocate for people who don’t have a voice, when one fool does such a stupid thing, it emboldens all the corrupt officers.

"But what kind of disease will make a person make up such a story? When you do this, you destroy the any opportunity to make a change in @GhPoliceService and also genuine victims of of such crimes will find it hard to come forward and won’t be believed when they do!" she tweeted.

Prior to the Police's findings, the media practitioner faulted the Police administration for failing to properly train its officers, whom she claimed planted narcotics into the vehicles of citizens.

“Your men are going round planting cocaine and weed in Peoples's cars, and instead of dealing with it, you care about the word ‘some’!!

“Don’t take the word of @GhPoliceService over the victim. IGP should be ashamed of himself. You know the victim, your men have spoken to the victim,” she earlier shared.

It is assumed that she judged the police before they were able to probe the matter because she had reached out to the suspect, Patrick Asiedu, who maintained his stance that he was framed.

"I personally spoke to the victim more than once after a medical doctor gave me his contact to help him, I felt the need to add my voice to help him from being silenced by an institution that has ranked consistently as the most corrupt in Ghana," she recently tweeted.

Meanwhile, the Police has assured that Patrick Asiedu will be made to face the law for his actions.
