Watch as family of slain soldier performs cleansing rituals at Kasoa

The late soldier, who was caught in the crossfire of a land dispute at Kasoa Millennium City, was brutally shot multiple times around a police station.

The main suspect in the case now, Benlord Ababio, who is said to have been the one named for this, was later reported to the police but it was at the police station that the late soldier, Danso, was attacked.

Benlord Ababio, according to both the Ghana Armed Forces and the Ghana Police Service, shot Lance Corporal Danso during an altercation over disputed land at Millennium City, a suburb of Kasoa, in the Central Region.

A statement by the Ghana Armed Forces indicated that the disputed land was a "half plot of land in dispute at Millennium City," which belonged to Lance Corporal Omar Abdul Rahman (one of the survivors of the attack).

Lance Corporal Omar Abdul Rahman had gone to secure his land with two other colleagues; Lance Corporal Danso Michael (deceased) and Lance Corporal Ametus Matthew, who also survived.

"Omar and his colleagues stopped the people from working and proceeded to the Millennium City Police Station to report the issue," the statement noted.

"The police disarmed and arrested the shooter after realizing Lance Corporal Danso had been hit by the rounds fired," the statement added.
