Government of Ghana to conduct independent autopsy on national killed in xenophobic attack in South Africa
The Ministry, in a statement issued on Thursday, July 16, reiterated the government’s demand for justice and called on South African authorities to accelerate investigations into the incident, including the arrest and prosecution of persons responsible.
The decision follows unsuccessful attempts by the Ghana High Commission in Pretoria and Mr Isak’s family to secure the official post-mortem report from South African authorities.
The Government of Ghana has resolved to conduct an independent autopsy on the remains of Bashiru Isak, the Ghanaian national who was killed in South Africa amid reported xenophobic attacks.
