Municipal authorities say there has been series of engagements with the occupants on the parcel of land since 2018.

According to them, the exercise was not out of place.

But the victims who spoke to Joy News appealed for support.

According to them, they are now homeless and their properties running into a few cedis have been destroyed.

They also accused the Assembly of selective justice since some affected person were allegedly compensated.
