Tension gripped the Torkpoi community in Bo today after police, acting on a court order, carried out a forced eviction that displaced several families. The operation quickly turned chaotic, with angry residents taking to the streets in protest.

Eyewitnesses described scenes of confusion as residents resisted what they saw as an unfair and heavy-handed action carried out without proper dialogue or consultation.

The strong police presence only fueled the community’s frustrations, leaving many families shaken and uncertain about their future.
