The father of a ten year old girl is devastated and is angrily calling for aid from the Police service, after they paralysed his daughter but have since refused to help take her of her ballooning medical bills.
Mr Asare is father of a ten year old girl, one who was shot accidentally by police one morning in a shootout between the service and a gang of robbers.
She was on the way to school one morning when she suddenly fell to the ground, blood oozing liberally from her head and face. She had been hit by a stray bullet.
The little girl was taken to hospital, where surgery had to carried out on her to take the bullet out of her skull. She has been left bedridden and paralysed in one part of her body.
The worst part is that the police have absolutely refused to take responsibility for their part in the girls infirmity, forcing the father to sell off his assets to take care of his daughter.
“After I had made an ini­tial payment in excess of over Ghc 2,000 for the medical bills, I had to sell my taxi to raise some more money to settle the rest of my daughter’s medical bills.” Mr Asare said about the afermath of his daughter’s accident.
“It was later that the po­lice made a contribution of Ghc600 and since then I have not heard anything from them,” he said.
“There are so many things she can’t do for her­self now.” Mr Asare continued, lamenting the state of his daughter’s health. “Even when she is waking out of bed, she would have to drag herself on the floor to the wall for support before she can stand on her feet,”
The father has signaled his willingness to head to court to seek redress from the police, after a petition to the Attorney General has also yielded no results.
