Nine suspects in the Atronie murder case have been discharged by the Sunyani Magistrate court.
The court presided by Mr. Albert Zoogah discharged Thomas Fodjour, Appiah Dominic, Yaw Ankrah Isaiah, Eric Sefa, Sarpong Jeremiah, Isaac Bio, Samuel Adjei, Yaw Bempah and Kwasi Oppong.
They were among 41 suspects the police arrested in connection with the murder of Mr. Anthony Yeboah Boateng, the Administrator of the Goaso Government Hospital, on Easter Sunday at Atronie, near Sunyani.
Assistant Superintendent of Police Martin Dafeamekpor told the court that the nine suspects were found to be innocent after screening.
He said the police could invite them any time they were needed to assist in investigations.
The remaining 32 suspects including the queen mother of Atronie and her husband were remanded to reappear on July 03.
Some youth of Atronie pounced on the deceased on Easter Sunday as he, his wife and a Roman Catholic Sister were conveying the corpse of his aunt in his private car from Sunyani to Goaso Government Hospital.
The youth had barricaded the road for a street jam to celebrate the Easter festivities and took Mr. Boateng to be ritual murderer and assaulted him to death.
