Torture and Unexplained Deaths in Ghana Police Cells

We dig deeper into disturbing accounts of abuse, neglect, and deaths that families say were never properly explained.

This investigation examines testimonies from relatives, legal practitioners, and human rights advocates who are demanding answers.

How do detainees enter police custody alive and leave in hearses?
Why is the police holding on to autopsy reports?
Why are officers allegedly responsible for these acts not being held accountable?

This episode traces specific cases and creates space for victims’ families to speak, vent their pain, and demand accountability.

The voices of families are central here. Their grief. Their frustration. Their search for justice.
