The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has criticised the treatment of Democracy Hub protesters who were arrested during a demonstration against illegal mining, also known as galamsey.
The protest, which was intended to be peaceful, turned violent when some demonstrators clashed with the police.
The Ghana Police Service accused the protesters of blocking roads, dismantling police barriers, and obstructing traffic during their demonstration at the 37 Roundabout in Accra.
As a result, over 40 protesters were arrested, and 39 of them were later remanded into police custody for two weeks. 11 more protesters were remanded on Wednesday, September 25.
