Kofi Essoun, a young man in his late 40s, is presently detained at the Manso Police Station for killing his brother at Bowohomoden, a neighborhood close to Mampong in the Mpohor District of the Western Region.
The host of Connect FM’s Omanbapa morning show, Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson, was informed by Nana Kwame, a local, that the suspect is a well-known hunter in the area. He claimed that he went on his usual hunting trip and killed an animal. According to him, he went on his normal hunting expedition and shot an animal.
“He came home and informed us that he has killed his brother. He went hunting alone last night without his brother. He saw an animal and shot it, he was going for the animal only for him to see the lifeless body of his brother lying at the same spot. He was shocked as to what his brother was doing at the place at that particular time in the night when he did not go hunting with him,” the man narrated.
District Chief Executive (DCE) for Mpohor Ignatius Asaah Mensah confirms the suspect has been arrested after reporting himself at the Manso Police station.
