The Ashanti Regional Police is collaborating with the Central Command of the Ghana Armed Forces for the release of military officers involved in the killing of a civilian at Nyinahin, in the Atwima Mponua District of the region.
The soldiers are said to have killed the civilian, identified as Akwasi Lala, also known as Kushivi and injured three others during a confrontation with some mourners who were on their way to bury their friend at the Nyinahin cemetery.
This was contained in a press statement signed by the Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Godwin Ahianyo, the Ashanti Regional Police Public Relations Officer.
DSP Ahianyo noted that the Regional Police Commander, DCOP Emmanuel Teye-Cudjoe, had since visited both the crime scene and the injured victims at the hospital.
The Regional Commander had also assured the community that a thorough investigation was underway and that those responsible would be brought to justice.
