The Police in Accra say they are holding three soldiers alleged to have brutalized a 21-year-old man, Evans Kusi to death.

The Commander of the Accra Regional Police, DCOP Douglas Akrofi-Asiedu says the three; Daniel Ankomah, Michael Okpata and Atsu Bodza are being investigated for murder.

Meanwhile Colonel E.K. Nibo, Head of Public Affairs Directorate of the Ghana Armed Forces has also told Joy News the soldiers would be made to face the full rigours of the law if found culpable.
