KILLED! Cpl Agartha Nana Nabin
Two more suspects have been
arrested and are standing trial in connection with the gruesome killing of the
female police officer at a checkpoint on the Kumbungu-Tamale road.
The two – Samuel Atutiga, 32,
and Hanan Alhassan Gurundoo, 18 – were arrested in the course of the ongoing
investigations into the case and have been charged with conspiracy to commit
crime and murder.
They join the four other
suspects, namely Nash Issahaku, Zulika Abduallah, Issahaku Yakubu Kanbon-Naa
and Mahama Nashiru, who were arrested soon after the
murder.
They appeared before the Tamale
District Magistrate Court on Wednesday and have been remanded in prison custody
to re-appear on 5th September 2019.
Both soldiers and police officers were deployed to the court premises where an unusual number of curious persons had gone to catch a glimpse of the suspects.
