The Member of Parliament for Ejura Sekyeredumase Constituency in the Ashanti Region, Bawa Braimah, has called for an autopsy to determine the cause of death of a resident, Masawudu, popularly known as Cantona, who allegedly died while in police custody.
The incident has sparked outrage in the Ejura community, with protests escalating into violent demonstrations, including the burning of the local police station.
Cantona was reportedly arrested on suspicion of purchasing a stolen phone and taken to the Ejura Police Station for questioning.
However, he was later pronounced dead at the Ejura Government Hospital.
