It will be recalled that Saint Sark and two of his church members, were arrested last Wednesday for the same offence but were released on police enquiry bail.

Besides this incident, all other churches in the Ashanti Region complied with the president directives and did not hold church services.

Most of them resorted to social media to reach out to their members. For instance, the Catholic Church in the Archdiocese used the CAK TV to stream the mass to the faithful in the Archdiocese.
