Chief Inspector Mac-Victor Anako is said to be the first beneficiary of the newly introduced Police Emergency Medical Intervention Fund (PEMIF).
The injured cop, flown to Germany for medical attention, has been provided with a new prosthetic leg to aid his mobility.
Armed robbers shot him in May 2007 during an anti-robbery operation at Nsawam.
He sustained a gunshot wound to his left thigh leading to the amputation of his leg.
In 2010, the Chief Inspector underwent some surgical procedures but suffered complications requiring further medical attention.
He returned to Ghana on March 30, 2022, with his wife by his side, wearing his new prosthetic leg and could be seen walking with ease.
The police, in a statement, said two other cops who are beneficiaries of the fund are currently undergoing medical care.
PEMIF
The PEMIF is an initiative of the police administration to provide financial assistance for the medical care of police officers who get injured in the line of duty.
The fund was approved and launched in January 2022 by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo- Addo, who made a personal donation at the launch to support it.
After introducing the PEMIF, Chief Inspector Mac-Victor Anako was flown to Hamburg, Germany, to fix a new prosthetic leg to aid his mobility.
The Police Administration fully paid for the total cost of the trip and treatment from the PEMIF.
