Four remanded for murder
Techiman (B/A), July 16, GNA- Four persons who allegedly
murdered and secretly buried a 30 year old man have been
remanded into prison custody by a circuit court at Techiman
presided over by Mr. Justice Godwin Kwasi-Kumah.
The court ordered Alhaji Yusifu Mataba Alhassan, alias Obolo,
42, a businessman, Amina Yusifu, 36, his wife, Osei Kwaku,
22, and Iddrisu Tona, alias landlord, 23 to re-appear on
August 2, this year.
Their pleas were not taken.
Chief Inspector Comfort Adubia Nyamesah told the court that
Alhaji Mataba accused the deceased, Yahaya Amadu and one
Baba Majar, 14, of stealing his mobile phone and three
million cedis.
The prosecutor said Alhaji arrested the two and subjected
them to severe punishment until he realised that Yahaya had
become weak and was about to collapse and rushed him to the
Techiman Holy family hospital but he died on the way.
He then carried the body in his private vehicle to Bredi
number one near Nkoranza and secretly buried Yahaya with the
help of the others.
