Two Chinese small scale illegal miners have been arrested in connection with the killing of two Ghanians at a mining site in Obuasi. LEE Weun Zong, and Leu Shin YEE are in police custody pending further investigations and prosecution, Obuasi Divisional Crime Officer DSP Kwabena Otua Acheampong confirmed to Joy News. The Ghanaians were shot dead following a concession dispute with the Chinese mine workers. "Yesterday around 5:30 we had information that there was a shooting incident at a town near Mebrewa near Obuasi.. So police went there and apparently it is a Chinese mining site owned by one Mr Kojo Fodjour, a Ghanaian," DSP Acheampong narrated. He explained it was a "concession dispute" between the Chinese workers on that mining site and another site owned by one Mr Gyima. According to him, Gyima had information that his site had been encroached by some Chinese workers and therefore called his boys to go and ward off the Chinese workers. He said the boys allegedly caned the the Chinese workers who retaliated by opening fire on the Ghanaians leading to the death of two people. DSP Acheampong says the Chinese suspects have denied involvement in the matter. Meanwhile, the Member of Parliament for Obuasi West, Kwaku Kwarteng is warning that foreigners could soon become the target of mob action if nothing is done about the situation.
