The police in Kumasi, the Ashanti Regional capital, have grabbed Issah
Mohammed alias Issah Koodey, and also chasing his son, Sayibor, over the
murder of one Richard Apuri.
The father, the son and
other people allegedly inflicted machete wounds
on Apuri at a road intersection between Kaase and Ahodwo on May 1, 2017.
Apuri, a resident of Kaase, reportedly bled profusely after the alleged
attack and he was said to have given up the ghost when he was rushed to
the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital for treatment.
Issah Koodey and his son, after allegedly committing the heinous crime,
went into hiding but luck eluded Koodey as he was eventually nabbed on
May 20 at Daaban.
Police investigations have linked the murder to a fierce scuffle that
ensued between some youth of Kaase and Apraman at the Fire City Pub,
Adiebeba, recently.
The Ashanti Regional Police Commander, DCOP Ken Yeboah, addressing the
media, said Sayibor, who is now wanted, was reportedly injured during
the said fracas.
The assault on Sayibor reportedly incensed his father and so he
purportedly threatened to eliminate any youth from Kaase that he would
meet.
The police chief said two hours after the clash, Issah Koodey, his son
and other young men hired a taxi to comb the area in search of potential
victims.
In the course of their search, they allegedly spotted Apuri, believed to
be a resident of Kaase, and without provocation, they attacked him with
machete.
