A 32-year-old filmmaker who recorded and circulated a video threatening to kill any police officer he encountered has been remanded by the Dansoman Circuit Court.

The accused, Israel Agbo Forson, pleaded not guilty to the charge of threat of death.

Chief Inspector Christopher Wonder, prosecuting, told the court that on June 18, 2025, a National Police Patrol Team stopped an Uber vehicle near Wisconsin University, with Forson as a passenger.

The team requested to search the vehicle and Forson’s luggage.

While the driver complied, Forson objected and demanded that officers wear gloves before conducting the search, leading to a verbal exchange during which he recorded the incident.

Both parties agreed to proceed to the Taifa Police Station, where the search was conducted in the presence of the District Commander. Forson was subsequently granted police enquiry bail.

The prosecution said that shortly after his release, Forson recorded another video in which he threatened to kill any police officer who crossed his path and shared it on social media.

On June 23, 2025, police intelligence identified Forson as the individual in the video.

He was arrested, and a search of his residence yielded no incriminating evidence.

The case has been adjourned, and Forson remains in custody pending further proceedings.
