“He was not wielding a gun or any weapon, the police killed him deliberately and allowed the criminals to escape,” one of them said.

Another eyewitness said he saw the late Amofa and the police exchanging words when he told them he was innocent.

“They won’t listen to him and they tortured him until he ran into the building opposite the bar. They shot after him and all I saw later was his dead body being dragged towards the police vehicle,” he added.

But Police have insisted he was part of a suspected three-member robbery gang who were on an operation at Agbogba.
