The Municipal Chief Executive for Nkoranza South (MCE), Daniel Owuredu, says he is working together with the security forces to ensure that calm is restored in Nkoranza.
This comment by the MCE follows the death of Albert Akwasi Donkor, is a footballer and digital television installer.
Donkor is said to have been picked up from his Nkoranza South home by armed officers at 2:00am on April 24, 2022 in an unregistered vehicle on an anti-armed robbery operation.
Police sources reportedly told the family the deceased was hit by a bullet by a supposed member of an armed robbery gang when the victim was leading them to other accomplices.
But the family accused the Police of masterminding the killing of an innocent man adding that Albert may have been targeted after he chanced on a robbery operation involving some police officers.
