The man who led a group of young men believed to be the ‘Invisible Forces’ to assault a senior police officer, ASP Nanka Bruce, at the Flagstaff House has gone into hiding, the Editor-in-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Abdul Malik Kwaku Baako, has revealed.

"He was a former policeman himself so they know him, they are looking for him to apprehend him and his guys who supported him and continue with investigations,” he said on Joy FM's Newsfile Saturday.

Last week, a leaked video of the attack generated criticism, causing the detention of a military officer at the Flagstaff House.

ASP Bruce is said to have been on duty at the Flagstaff House when the assault on him took place on January 9th, the first Monday after President Akufo-Addo's inauguration ceremony.

Following the attack, ASP Bruce filed a complaint with the CID and later withdrew it saying he wanted unity and peace in the country, Mr Baako revealed.

According to him, despite the withdrawal of the case, the police CID is still pursuing the case.

Mr Baako condemned the attack on ASP Bruce describing it as lawless. “No matter the provocation, it was lawless and what is more to perpetuate that act at the presidency.”
