The Northern Regional Police Command is offering ¢10,000 cash reward to anyone with credible information that would lead to the arrest of persons who shot and killed the Karaga District Chief Executive’s driver, Issah Ziblim.
The Northern Regional Police Commander, Commissioner of Police (COP) Timothy Yoosa Bonga, announced this at a press briefing in Tamale.
Issah Ziblim, 44, was shot and killed by unknown armed men at 12 midnight on Saturday at Yemo, a community near Karaga.
Ziblim was on his way from Tamale to Karaga in a White Nissan Patrol vehicle with registration number GT 8459-19, when the incident occurred, COP Bonga said.
He said the police proceeded to the scene at 6:30 am the same day and found the vehicle parked off the road with the engine running while Zimblim was found lying in the driver’s seat with bullet wounds on his head.
The Regional Police Commander said the police had commenced investigations into the attack to arrest the culprits.
“We need information from members of the public to help trace and arrest the perpetrators of this heinous crime," COP Bonga said.
“We appeal to members of the public, and particularly people of the communities along the route from Tampion-Yemo, Karaga-Yapala to Karaga and beyond, to assist with information in our efforts to arrest the suspects.”
