Dampare decided to recuse himself and not to be part of the disciplinary action.
He explained that he will allow the Police Management Board (POMAB) and the Police Council to decide the fate of COP Alex Mensah, Superintendent George Asare, and Superintendent Emmanuel Eric Gyebi.
The three senior police officers were interdicted by the Police Service on Thursday, September 7, but the service later rescinded the decision.
The police in a statement dated September 7, indicated that the decision to suspend the interdiction of the three police officers was to ensure it does not affect the ongoing probe by Parliament.

During his appearance before the parliamentary committee, COP Mensah accused the IGP, Dr George Akuffo Dampare, of mismanaging the Police Service.
