Flying drone over EOCO premises is strictly prohibited – Security consultant
Security consultant Dr Ishmael Norman has described the alleged flying of drones over the premises of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) as a serious security breach, noting that drone operations over the facility are strictly prohibited.
Dr. Ishmael Norman, a security consultant, has warned of the grave security breach that occurred with the unauthorized flying of drones over the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) premises. In an interview on JoyNews' The Pulse, Dr. Norman emphasized that such drone operations are strictly prohibited, even for those with the required permits, especially when they occur near designated security zones. The penalties for violating these restrictions can be severe, potentially resulting in a prison sentence.
The arrest of three individuals who were allegedly flying drones over the EOCO headquarters for extended periods has prompted Dr. Norman's comments. He stressed that the EOCO facility, being a security installation, cannot be subjected to unauthorized surveillance. Dr. Norman expressed concerns that drones equipped with recording or listening devices could capture confidential conversations within the facility, which he termed "very close to treason."
He strongly urged that such behavior should not be tolerated and that it is unacceptable for even a patriotic Ghanaian to engage in this conduct.
