The news conference follows the attack on the Kumasi Circuit Court by the Delta Force, a vigilante group associated with the governing New Patriotic Party.

Mr Apeatu said: "The issue of political vigilantism has been topical for sometime now. My predecessors and their respective administrations strive to stamp out the phenomenon from our body politics and for that matter our society.

"This isolated incident by a group who call itself as Delta Force in Kumasi is alien to our culture and criminal.

"As a law enforcement agency, we are going to pursue our goal of bringing the phenomenon of vigilantism to an end.

"The police will employ all legitimate means available to us including dialogue, enforcement and enactment of laws.

"In this direction, we are happy other bodies, institutions and personalities including the Ministry of Interior, the Ghana Bar Association, the Peace Council, the media and Civil Societies have indicated their readiness to put their shoulders to the wheel."
