Kwaku Gyimah, 60, a farmer from Dunkura near Lake Bosomtwe in the Ashanti Region, has appeared before a Magistrate\u2019s court on a provisional charge of murder.<\/p>\n
The accused was alleged to have shot Opanin Kwabena Atta, a farmer and native of Montuo, also near the Lake, on his farm on August 24, this year.<\/p>\n
When he appeared before the court, Gyimah\u2019s plea was not taken and was remanded into prison custody to reappear on September 9.<\/p>\n
The Bekwai District Police Commander, Felix Cosmo, told the Ghanaian Times that the accused allegedly went on a hunting expedition on the day of the incident.<\/p>\n
He said at about 3:00.p.m. the accused claimed he saw an object that looked like a monkey and shot at it.<\/p>\n
Gyimah said, \u201cbut when I went closer I realised it was a human being,\u201d the District Commander added.<\/p>\n
A cross section of the inhabitants the Ghanaian Times spoke claimed they suspect foul play and appealed to the police to get to the bottom of the matter.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
