The Nkwanta South Municipality in the Oti Region reports that a mob beat a man to death after they allegedly found him breaking into a building without permission.
The event was reported to the Ghana News Agency by Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Nchor, Public Relations Officer of the Oti Police Command (GNA).
He claimed that the suspect was struck by the mob with clubs, stones, metals, and other objects until he fell unconscious and passed away.
He claimed that the Police are looking into the brutal and dehumanizing “jungle justice” that the enraged youth posing as vigilantes in the Nkwanta South region meted out to the suspect.
He described the act as inimical to the law governing the country and warned the youth that the Police would not allow disgruntled elements in the society to take the law into their hands by killing suspects in such unlawful manner.
