The journalist is Caleb Kudah who works with Accra-based CitiFM.
The withdrawal of the officers was made known by the National Security Minister, Albert Kan Dapaah in a statement dated May 20, 2021.
The statement indicated that an investigation Committee was set up by the Ministry of National Security to investigate a report of assault of Mr Kudah of CitiFM on May 11, 2021.
