The Center for the Protection of Human Rights has called for the arrest of Deputy Speaker Tokpah Mulbah.
The group’s Executive Director, Dempster Brown, said investigation his Center conducted showed the deputy speaker was involved with the flogging of officer, Lexington Beh.
Cllr. Brown told Star Radio Deputy Speaker Mulbah is not above the law and must not be given preferential treatment.
The human rights lawyer said the act the Deputy Speaker is linked to is felony of the second degree which warrants his arrest under the law.
Cllr. Brown said not arresting the Deputy Speaker in the face of the offense he allegedly committed is disrespect to the rule of law in Liberia.
He said this is no time for what he called selective justice in Liberia.
