Diaspora Zongo Youth condemn man captured assaulting suspect in viral video

The Zongo Youth of the Diaspora has condemned a Muslim man, Sibamay Zakaria, for allegedly assaulting a suspect, Apostle Daniel Junior Yaw Adjei, at a police station in a viral video. The incident occurred after Zakaria slapped the suspect over comments deemed derogatory and offensive to Islam and its founder, Prophet Mohammed. Zakaria's actions were described as unlawful by the Zongo Youth's Public Relations Officer, Al-Asbat Sidi, who questioned how Zakaria was able to enter the police premises and interrogate the pastor.

The Zongo Youth called for Zakaria's arrest and prosecution, as well as questioning of the police officers who allegedly allowed him access to the suspect. The police have also recently arrested Apostle Daniel Adjei and an imam, Masud Abdullah, over inciteful comments, which the Zongo Youth commended as a step towards maintaining peace and responsibility in Ghana's media space.
