Bono East Regional Police Commander, DCOP Asumadu Okyere-Darko has charged Officers of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU) to always discharge their duties diligently.

 He also charged the officers to do their possible best to ensure that people who report cases to their stations get justice in order to strengthen the Citizenry’s confidence in the Ghana Police service.

For her part, the Bono regional DOVVSU Coordinator ASP Beatrice Korsah urged the Police personnel to always collaborate with other Stakeholders to put the Domestic Violence Act of Ghana to proper use in order to punish perpetrators of crimes against children and women.
