Irate youth yesterday besieged a popular brothel at Adum in Kumasi, to avenge the shooting of their colleague by the police.
Twenty-five-year-old trader, Kofi Asamoah, was allegedly stabbed with a bottle during a scuffle with some commercial sex workers.
Nhyira FM’s Kofi Asante who visited the area reported a police-military team arrived at the scene to arrest the bleeding man who was threatening to retaliate his stabbing but he resisted the arrest, insisting his attacker must be arrested first.
An eyewitness told Nhyira News the commander of the security officers ordered his men to shoot Kofi Asamoah and the instructions were carried out with military precision resulting in the victim’s death instantly.
The Kumasi police have explained the deceased attempted to stab a military officer on the patrol team.
Ashanti Regional Police PRO, Chief Inspector Mohammed Tanko told Nhyira FM’s Kofi Asante that the deceased “pulled a knife to stab one of the military men” and they responded by shooting him.
