GDC all smiles as police change their mind and grant party permit

GDC has been granted a permit to hold its planned rallies in the Upper River Region.

Police on Tuesday came under fire after turning down GDC’s request for a permit to hold rallies in Kulari, in Tumana and Sareh Buchi village in Jimara next week. Police said December was a peak period in terms of security coverage.

But today, the Inspector General of Police granted the opposition party a permit to hold their rallies.

Party officials confirmed to The Fatu Network a permit was granted today after the party re-applied.
