“We were expecting him. When we called his number late into the night, there was no response. Somebody showed me a video and asked, do you know this man, that was when I identified my son.”
According to Asanubu Imoro, the military and other security agencies have been in close contact with the family as the investigation into the killing was ongoing.
When the Ghanaian Times contacted the Ashaiman Divisional Police Command concerning the incident, the authorities declined to speak on the matter, but indicated that 13 suspects had been arrested so far.
