UNIVERSITY OF GHANA

Authorities at the University of Ghana are coming under increasing pressure to recall all thirteen (13) students who were suspended for their alleged involvement in the molestation of one Amina Haruna over a theft case there. The students were suspended and others rusticated by the University last year after a video of the molestation act became public, claiming their actions had brought the name of the University into disrepute. The students subjected Amina Haruna to physical assault and molestation for stealing a laptop and a mobile phone at the Mensah Sarbah Hall Annex B on the night of 6 May, 2011. An Accra High Court on Tuesday discharged all 13 male students for want of prosecution. The National Union of Ghana Students has since called on the University of Ghana to as a matter of urgency, recall the students back to continue with their academics, or face their wrath.
