Late Corporal Bernard Anwti<\/strong><\/p>\n

Police in the Ashanti Region arrested four persons on Tuesday in
\nconnection with the murder of Corporal Bernard Antwi of Manso Nkwanta District
\nPolice Command.<\/p>\n

The suspects \u2013 including two females \u2013 were detained on
\nsuspicion of being involved in the commission of the dastardly act which
\noccurred on Monday evening at Manso Abodom in
\nthe Amansie West District.<\/p>\n

Deputy Ashanti Regional Police Commander ACP

\nare underway to get other persons who have been implicated in the murder to
\nassist in police investigation.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Cpl. Antwi, 37, was on board a vehicle with some Chinese
\nnationals from Manso Dome to Antoakrom\u00a0when
\nthe armed men attacked them on the outskirts of Abodom around 5:30 p.m.\u00a0He
\nwas shot in the head and was pronounced dead at the scene before being taken to
\nthe morgue of St. Martin Hospital at Agroyesum, DAILY GUIDE<\/em><\/strong> gathered.<\/p>\n

Cpl. Antwi, an old hand of the mining community, was allegedly
\nescorting the Chinese miners from a mining site at Manso Dome when the tragic
\nincident occurred.<\/p>\n

Witnesses told the paper that the gangsters, who numbered more
\nthan four, crossed the vehicle of the victim and his cohorts, and opened fire
\non them.<\/p>\n

According to sources, the police officer was on duty at the main
\npolice barrier at Manso Agroyesum road when he was called to escort the Chinese
\nminers from the galamsey site to Antoakrom.<\/p>\n

Witnesses said the gunmen quickly fled the scene after
\ncommitting the dastardly act, but could not tell whether they took away
\nanything. Investigations are underway.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe IGP, Police Administration and the Regional Police Command
\nextend their condolences to the bereaved families,\u201d ACP Adjem concluded. <\/p>\n
