Avenor clashes, one person killed
Audrey Agyiri-Inkoom, Ghanadot
Accra, Nov 16, Ghanadot - One person has been killed and several
others injured in clashes at Avenor, a suburb of Accra, after
gunmen attacked residents this morning.
The violence erupted after a busload of people arrived at a
settlement in the area to work on a property belonging to the
Word Miracle Church.
The clashes come days after the church secured a court
injunction to demolish structures on a parcel of land in the
area.
A team of police officers supervised a demolition exercise last
week which residents protested. The police have arrested 27
people in connection with the incident, 17 of whom are believed
to be land guards.
The land guards had claimed the church had asked them to carry
out an exercise on its parcel of land there.
But residents say the armed land guards started firing gunshots
on arrival, arousing panic.
The gunfire reportedly triggered a clash in which one of the
land guards was gunned down and his left armed severed.
Police investigations into the incident are under way.
