Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>A legal representative of the protesters arrested on Thursday, September 21 over the botched march to the Jubilee House has confirmed that almost all of them have been released.<\/b><\/p>\n

The police rounded up the protesters at the 37 bus terminal, where they were congregating for the demonstration Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

According to the police, an application stopping the demonstration had been filed and served Atuguba & Associates, lawyers of organisers Democracy Hub, as far back as Tuesday , September 19.<\/p>\n

However, the organisers defied the police directive to start the march.<\/p>\n

Most of them, confirmed by the police as 49 in number, were picked up and sent to various prisons in the capital, Accra.<\/p>\n

But speaking on late Thursday, lawyer Prince Elikplim Ganaku confirmed that all of the protesters have been released.<\/p>\n

He said they were released under \u201cquite generous\u201d conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as I know, they should have all been released by now,\u201d he told host Alfred Ocansey.<\/p>\n

He disputed the police number, confirming that about 56 of the protesters were arrested.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the protesters have served notice to protest again on Friday, going by the original plan of picketing at the seat of government for three days.<\/p>\n
