Meanwhile, the four suspects are currently in custody assisting the Police investigation.
Information gathered indicates that both the deceased and the injured individual are believed to be members of the NDC.

Ghana Police Service sources have since confirmed that the victims were supporters of Phillis Naa Koryor.
