A police recruit at the Police Public Safety Training School (PPSTS), Pwalugu, has been arrested for allegedly using a fake Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) certificate.
Suspect Sadam Sumaila was arrested when he went to demand a rightful placement after he was given a constable rank.
A news brief by the Ghana Police Service received said he was assisting investigations.
It said the suspect, who had been under training since October 2023, presented a forged degree certificate claiming to have been issued by KNUST.

The administration later detected the certificate was fake and arrested him.
