The third police officer, Supt George Asare, is expected to testify before the committee today.

A significant development in the investigation occurred when COP George Mensah claimed that the IGP himself orchestrated the recording of the leaked tape and possesses the original copy.

He suggested that the committee should call upon the IGP if they need access to the tape. This revelation has sparked various opinions among the public.

One committee member, James Agalga, expressed the possibility of inviting the IGP to assist with the investigation. However, former Deputy Defence Minister, Major Derrick Oduro (Rtd.), holds a different view. He argued that there might not be a need to invite the IGP since the accusation revolves around him. Major Derrick Oduro also questioned whether the terms of reference for the committee cover matters that warrant inviting the IGP, and he expressed reservations about the direction the committee is taking in considering such an invitation.
