In the viral video, Afenyo Markin and some other protestors were captured trying to break through a police barricade when the minority leader hit the police and called him a fool for preventing them from breaking through the barricade.

According to reports, tempers flared when Afenyo Markin was nearly denied entry into the Fore Court of the Parliament House for the presentation of a second petition to the Speaker.

Alexander Afenyo Markin in a statement issued on May 5, 2025, narrated the incident and claimed that Constable Forson struck him forcefully on the chest near his heart as he approached the barricade to present a petition.

He stated, “I was protesting the conduct of a Constable, who, without provocation, deliberately struck the left side of my chest dazing me and leaving me short of breath”.

“What makes this assault particularly egregious is that the officer was being openly reprimanded by his superiors and fellow officers at the time, yet he defiantly responded that he didn’t care who I was,” he added.

“We must not be distracted from the purpose of the demonstration. We marched to defend the Constitution and the independence of the judiciary—principles that must be protected at all costs,” he affirmed.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has written to Speaker of Parliament Alban Bagbin to request the release of minority leader Alexander Afenyo Markin.

In a formal request, the Police Service wrote to the Speaker to release the minority leader to help in the investigation.

This comes following an ongoing investigation following a viral video allegedly showing the minority leader punching a police officer during the ‘Save the Judiciary demonstration.’

According to the Police statement, several videos have been reviewed and they are inviting Afenyo Markin to cooperate with their investigations.

The Police statement also indicates the officer in question will also be assisting in the investigation.
