\n

A SUSPECTED thief has been lynched after a failed attempt to rob a lady
\nof her bag.<\/p>\n

The sad
\nincident happened at Kenyasi, near Kumasi, last Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

The thief, who
\nwas in the company of two other criminals, attacked the lady in public to take
\naway her bag.<\/p>\n

Sensing danger,
\nthe lady screamed for help and that attracted a sizeable number of young men to
\nthe scene.<\/p>\n

The charged
\nyouth then gave the three suspected thieves a wild chase but two of them
\nmanaged to escape.<\/p>\n

The third
\nsuspect ran to a community cemetery in the area to hide but he was grabbed by
\nhis pursuers.<\/p>\n

Eyewitnesses
\nclaimed the mob continually asked the thief to name his accomplices but he
\nrefused to talk.<\/p>\n

His lack of co-operation
\nangered the mob, who then applied instant justice to end his life within few
\nminutes.<\/p>\n

The mob
\nreportedly hit the suspect with all manner of items, including cement blocks,
\nto take away his life.<\/p>\n

Thieves have
\nbeen tormenting residents of Kenyasi in recent times with their illegal activities,
\nreports have indicated.<\/p>\n

According to
\nreports, the angry mob, therefore, decided to lynch the thief to serve as a
\nwarning to other criminals.<\/p>\n

At the time of
\nfiling this report, the body of the suspected thief was still lying at the
\ncemetery.<\/p>\n
