A
trotro
mate
has
sadly
brought
to
the
limelight
how
he
was
arrested
for
the
most
stupid
reason.
Speaking
in
an
interview
on
GhOne
TV
monitored
by
Ghpage.com,
the
trotro
mate
disclosed
that
he
was
among
the
people
that
were
arrested
during
the
anti-
galamsey
protest.
Narrating
his
sad
story,
he
stated
that
he
was
passing
by
when
he
saw
the
protestors
on
the
street
of
Accra.
He
revealed
that
even
though
he
was
not
part
of
the
protest,
instead
of
passing
quietly,
he
shouted
“Choo
boi”,
something
he
claims
he
usually
does.
The
trotro
mate
said
that
the
police
without
any
proper
investigation
arrested
him.
“I
was
just
passing
by,
and
suddenly
I
found
myself
in
a
nightmare.
I
didn’t
mean
anything
by
it.
It
was
just
a
phrase
I’ve
heard
and
said
before.
I
told
them
I
wasn’t
part
of
the
protest,
but
they
didn’t
listen.
They
just
saw
me
as
part
of
the
crowd.
They
slapped
me
and
beat
me
severely
for
no
reason.
I
was
just
trying
to
explain
myself,”
he
said.
