Yakubu Issahaku, the main suspect in the murder of the late police officer, Sergeant Nana Agathar, has been arraigned before the Tamale Magistrate Court, in a fresh case against him for allegedly attempting to kill one Tominu Yussif in Tamale in May 2018.<\/p>\n

The suspect was sent to the Tamale Magistrate Court but the case was not heard.<\/p>\n

The suspect reportedly shot and injured the victim when he asked the victim to give him cash amount of GH\u00a22000 at a spot popularly called James town located at \u201cassembly man park\u201d at water works, in Tamale.<\/p>\n

The suspect and five others are standing trial in connection with the gruesome killing of the female police officer at a checkpoint on the Kumbungu-Tamale road.<\/p>\n

They are expected to reappear in court tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Addressing the media , the Northern Regional Crime Officer, Supt. Otuo Acheampong, said the victim came to the police when he heard of the arrest of the suspect.<\/p>\n

According to him , the suspect was rearrested in the fresh case and will face trial in the two separate cases.<\/p>\n

Supt. Acheampong said the suspect will be charged with attempted murder and use of offensive weapon without authority.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince attempting murder is an indictable offense , after investigation , we will forward the docket to the Attorney General for their directive,\u201d he said <\/p>\n

FACT <\/p>\n

The complainant in this case is a wife of the victim Tominu Yussif who lives at Kpanvo a suburb of Tamale with her husband. <\/p>\n

The accused person Issahaku Yakubu Kanbo-Naa on the other hand is a tailor who doubles as a chief warrior of Salamba, Tamale. <\/p>\n

On May 8, 2018, about 9:00pm, the victim went to a drinking spot popularly called James town located at \u201cassembly man park\u201d at water works. <\/p>\n

While there, the accused person came to the drinking spot and started firing an AK 47 rifle into the air. <\/p>\n

He finally went and sat with the victim and asked him to give him a sum of GH\u00a22000. The victim however denied him of his request which led to the accused person shooting him in the left thigh. <\/p>\n

A witness called the victim\u2019s wife who went to the scene and rushed the victim to the Tamale teaching hospital for treatment. <\/p>\n

A complaint was later lodged with the police where police medical form was issued to the complainant on behalf of the victim. <\/p>\n

Doctors retrived a bullet believed to be AK 47 assault rifle from the victim\u2019s thigh. <\/p>\n

The accused person who is involved in a murder case and remanded into prison custody, was subsequently identified by the victim.<\/p>\n
