BBC reporter Thomas Naadi and his cameraman have been arrested by police in Accra, Ghana.

The #OccupyJulorbiHouse (the house of a child of a thief) demonstration -- a play on the Jubilee House -- seat of the presidency, also saw a Metro TV reporter assaulted by police.
The reporter was later released but his cameraman was still in police custody.
