A military man in the viral pharmacy assault video has been arrested by the military police.
According to reports, the lady the military man slapped is the daughter of the former Provost Marshall of the Military Police.
The military man has been identified as Williams Mensah.
Saddick Adams, in a post on X, wrote, “The lady assaulted by the Military officer at the Pharmacy is the daughter of the former Provost Marshall of the Military Police.
The Provost is essentially a senior military officer responsible for law enforcement, discipline, and security within the armed forces.
He coordinates or oversees all investigations into crimes involving military personnel”.
The military man has been identified as Williams Mensah.
His arrest comes after he assaulted a drugstore attendant and a female customer at a pharmacy in Burma Camp in civilian clothes.
In the CCTV footage going viral on social media, the alleged military man is seen slapping both the woman and the pharmacy attendant.
The information gathered suggests, the military officer demanded a refund of about ₵65 after rejecting the medication he had sent a boy to purchase on his behalf.
The pharmacy attendant reportedly informed him that the drugs sold are not returnable, which irritated the man and led him to assault both the attendant and the woman.
In the viral video, the military officer pushed the female customer on the chest when the phone pull out her phone to record him. He then slapped the female twice before taking his aim at the pharmacy attendant.
It is unclear what triggered his anger in the video, but his violent actions left the attendant and the woman visibly distraught.
Meanwhile, some Ghanaians have reacted to the viral CCTV footage shared on social media, calling for the arrest of the alleged military man.
One netizen stated, “ Things like this sometimes you question civilisation because someone like this man deserves to be publicly flogged if he can’t control his temper. Imagine what his wife and family have to deal with at home? Jail is too kind of a punishment…!!!! He must be found ASAP, he shouldn’t sleep at all”.
“@GhPoliceService, so if the attendant had a licensed gùn and used it as self-defence in such a situation, will he be arrested? Please advise”, one more netizen wrote,
A netizen wrote, “Jail this twat, society will be better without the likes of him. Unpopular opinion but Y’all could learn something from this. A phone or camera is not a shield from madness or imminent danger. Secure yourself and make sure you are safe before you pull that thing out to record. “Camera man never dies” is true only on the internet”.
“The lady was being recklessly brave. How do you pull out your phone to visibly start recording a madman on a rampage at such a close range? That’s how people got severely wounded or killed by ‘kwashee boys’ oo. He could have even destroyed her phone. Wisdom is key”, one Ghanaian wrote.
Additionally, a netizen added, “The sad part about most cases involving military personnel assaulting civilians is that they often get swept under the carpet. They’ll arrest him, yes, but we’ll never hear about how the case ends”.
“I’m really looking forward to the aftermath of this barbarism. Nobody is ever above the law to act in this despicable manner. Where is the IGP, President or head of armed forces? This man should really face the law for his actions”, a X user wrote.
