A Ghanaian based in Oman, Richard Nyantakyi Amponsah, who played a key role in the evacuation of a woman neglected in Oman, has cried out to the government following his arrest for an unrelated ‘crime’.
Mr Amponsah, together with his friend, Jomiel Aboagye – a British Navy officer – was allegedly arrested in the Arabian country after rescuing an abused woman.
Per Mr Amponsah’s statements, they run into the scene of some unidentified residents pounding a woman, and they, being humanitarians, decided to help.
However, what they though was service to humanity has landed them behind bars for the past ten days, with no help coming through.
The duo is, therefore, pleading with the government to use any means possible to ensure they regain their freedom.
