A 46-year-old man named Abraham Kwadzo Goka has been brutally lynched in Adansi Asokwa.

Family members are now pleading for the intervention of the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and the government to ensure that a pharmacy owner, who they accuse of orchestrating the attack, is brought to justice.

He revealed that the alleged perpetrators claimed that the deceased had caused extensive damage to their pharmacy shops.

He questioned the morality of taking someone’s life as a response to property damage, noting that there were surveillance cameras at the scene that could serve as evidence.

He passionately appealed to both the IGP and the government to provide assistance to the family in apprehending the pharmacy owner and ensuring appropriate legal action is taken.

He stated that when he arrived at the scene to verify the report, the victim was still alive but severely injured within the pharmacy he was accused of damaging.

The pharmacy owner declined to comment in front of the cameras.

The Adansi Fomena district commander has confirmed the death of the deceased and announced that the body has been conveyed to the morgue for post-mortem examination.
