The National Reconciliation Commission is scheduled to investigate the killing of some senior military officers during the June 4 uprising, when it begins sitting. Member of the commission, Gen Emmanuel Erskine says the Commission is mandated to find an answer to questions as to why the senior military officers were killed.
At a meeting with military personnel from the Takoradi Two Garrison today, Lt. Gen. Erskine said the issue is a sensitive matter which, if resolved, could further the national reconciliation process. He told the officers that until the NRC deals with the issue, its work would not be completed.
Another member of the NRC, Professor Henrietta Mensa-Bonsu also told the officers not to hold the perception that the Reconciliation Commission was created to investigate only wrongs committed by the military against civilians. She assured them that equal attention would be given to wrongs done by both civilians and the military.
