Several protesters from the Democracy Hub group were arrested by police at the 37 Roundabout on the second day of their three-day protest, which originally focused on the ongoing economic crisis but later shifted to an anti-galamsey (illegal mining) demonstration. Despite a police warning against gathering at the same location, approximately 20 protesters were detained.
The police have yet to release an official statement detailing the number of arrests or the charges the protesters may face. However, the incident has ignited widespread discussion on social media, with many demanding clarity and raising concerns about the right to peaceful assembly. Police also took inventory of mobile phones seized from the detained protesters.
