The Ghana Academy of Forensic Sciences has raised serious concerns about the handling of the remains of the eight people who died in the tragic military helicopter crash on August 6.
The academy's president, Dr Pet-Paul Wepeba, has lambasted the authorities' response, describing the transportation of the victims' bodies in sacks as "undignified" and a dangerous breach of established protocols.
Speaking on Eyewitness News on Friday, August 8, 2025, Dr Wepeba expressed his dismay at the sight of the high-profile victims' bodies being handled in such a manner. "When it comes to the bodies that were transported, they are humans, for heaven's sake.
For that matter, the situation where they were put in sacks and transported is not a good practice; it doesn't add up," he stated.
