Police in Akosombo in the Eastern region have exhumed the bodies of
two African Americans killed and buried by some unknown assailants in
the region.
The victims who had gone missing for sometime were found on Tuesday
afternoon on the floor witha blood stained cudgel believed to have
been used to hit them by their side.
It is suspected that the two, a 75-year-old lady identified only as
Mamlena and 60-year-old Nzinga were kidnapped and murdered.
Reports indicate that the deceased who were leaders of the African
American Community were recently accused by the Chieftaincy Minister,
Dr. Seidu Danaa, of illegally acting as chiefs.
Speaking onEyewitness News, the lawyer for the deceased, Sampson Lardi
expressed the hope that the Police will apprehend the suspects.
"This is a big blow and we hope thatthe law takes full effect" Mr.
Lardi pointed out that though the town was set up to integrate African
Americans back to their roots, "they might not want to come down to
Ghana and we would lose the good things that come with that" He said
the other African Americans who are left in the community "need
protection."
