Blood-curdling youth of Kwapong in
the Asunafo South District of the Brong-Ahafo Region on Friday vandalised the
town’s police station and burnt alive a fetish priest who was in police
custody.
In what looked like a movie scene,
police personnel had to run for their lives until reinforcement arrived from
nearby Goaso, Kenyasi and Mim.
The irate youth of Kwapong had
stormed the police station to deliver instant justice to Efo Kwasi, a
27-year-old spiritualist who allegedly stabbed and killed one Kwaku Donkor, a
tri-cyclist.
The police, as expected, arrested
Efo and kept him in custody; but the youth numbering over 1000, inexplicably
stormed the police station and demanded that the fetish priest be released to
them.
In the ensuing confusion, one of the
policemen reportedly fired warning shots to disperse the crowd and in the
process, stray bullets hit one Kwame Wiafe, killing him instantly and also
injuring another by name Kwame Kabore.
Incensed by the killing of their
colleague, the youth then vandalised the police station, forcibly broke into
the cell, pulled out the fetish priest and set him ablaze. He also died
instantly.
