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.
