The Greater Accra Regional Police Command has arrested a suspect in connection with the recent assault on JoyNews journalist Latif Iddrisu.

According to a police statement released on Sunday, June 8, the suspect, identified as 55-year-old Theophilus Thompson, was arrested on Saturday, June 7, at approximately 5:00 p.m. in James Town.

He is currently in police custody and assisting with ongoing investigations.

The incident occurred on May 27, 2025, around 7:00 p.m. during a protest staged in front of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) in Accra.

The demonstration was organized by a group of individuals, including some Members of Parliament and supporters of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), in opposition to the arrest of the party’s Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi.

While covering the protest, Mr. Iddrisu was reportedly attacked by some demonstrators. His assault drew public condemnation and renewed calls for stronger protections for journalists in Ghana.

The police assured the public that efforts are underway to identify and apprehend other individuals involved in the attack.

“Efforts are underway to identify and arrest other individuals involved in the incident. The Accra Regional Police Command reiterates its commitment to protecting the rights of journalists and ensuring that anyone who engages in acts of violence against media personnel or any member of the public is brought to justice,” the statement read.
