The safest thing is go through Parliament - Kpebu defends Baffour Awuah

EOCO, for its part, has said it recognises and respects the constitutional privileges and immunities of MPs and that membership of Parliament does not place an individual beyond the reach of the law.

Speaking on TV3’s Keypoints in response to questions from host Alfred Ocansey about the September 23 confrontation at the Accra High Court, Kpebu said he saw no basis for interpreting the MP’s position differently.

He argued that law enforcement agencies should take extra care when dealing with a sitting MP because parliamentary privileges can become an issue.
