INCIDENCE OF ASSAULT ON THE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS
The Management of the University of Ghana has learned with concern that a young man was assaulted around the southern part of the University’s Legon campus. The attack was videoed and widely shared on social media.
Preliminary information from the University’s Security Services Unit uncovers the following:
A young man dressed like a female was seen in the Okponglo area, seeking accommodation and was accommodated by some women in the area.
During the night, his true identity was revealed, leading to physical assault by the women who accommodated him.
A refuse collector, assuming the young man to be a woman, intervened and took him to a refuse collection site behind Dr. Hilla Limann Hall.
Realising the true gender the following morning, the refuse collector also assaulted the young man, instructing him to leave the area.
The Security Personnel were alerted by University of Ghana students to intervene.
Some of the students who watched the scene took videos.
The University Security Services Unit handed both the young man and the refuse collector (both of whom are not students of the University) over to the Legon Police for investigation.
