Armed men kill GCB Deputy Managing
Director
Tema, June 29, GNA - A gang of four armed men last night
stormed the house of the Deputy Managing Director in-charge
of Operations of the Ghana Commercial Bank (GCB), Mr Rocco
Frimpong at Sakumono Estates and shot him dead at close
range.
A relative, Madam Rebecca Fumador, who is the deceased's
brother's wife on Friday told the Ghana News Agency at the
scene of the incident that the armed men disguised
themselves in black dresses and dark sun glasses.
She said at about 2030 hours on Thursday, she heard a knock
at the main gate and went to open it and saw a young man who
said he was looking for Mr Frimpong who was then ironing his
dress in the room.
Madam Fumador said before she could ask further questions,
the man pushed her aside, followed by three others and went
straight to where Mr Frimpong was ironing, pulled him to the
main gate and shot him.
Just at that time, two of the armed robbers collected her
husband, Mr James Dabo's two mobile phones and hit his
forehead, resulting in blood gushing out.
Madam Fumador said the armed men did not enter any of the
rooms to pick anything but after shooting him at the gate,
they rushed into a dark-blue saloon car parked far away from
the house and sped away.
There were blood stains at the main entrance to the house
when the GNA visited there.
Madam Fumador said the body has been deposited at the Tema
General Hospital mortuary for autopsy.
Meanwhile the Tema Regional Police Commander, Assistant
Commissioner of Police (ACP) John Kudalor confirmed the
story and told the GNA that the Regional Police Command has
offered 20 million cedis to anyone whose information would
lead to the arrest of the perpetrators of the crime.
