A final year student of Tweneboah Kodua Senior High School (SHS), identified as Daniel Osei-Mensah, has allegedly been stabbed to death over a motorcycle.
According to reports, the police at Jacobu in the Ashanti Region have begun investigations on the death of the 16-year-old boy.
Osei-Mensah is said to have been operating a motorcycle business at Odaho in the Amansie West District during his vacation when he met his untimely death.
According to a police report, the victim was lured into the bush by his assailants, who stabbed him in the lower abdomen and chest.
An eyewitness said they received a call from one “Fiankomah” after several hours of searching for Osei and his motorbike.
“Moments after the call, we moved in groups to actually confirm such terrible news. On our way to the crime scene, we had another call claiming that we had bypassed the police vehicle”.
“Upon our return, we met the police vehicle with the body of the deceased wrapped with a black rubber in the vehicle’s bucket. So, we followed them to their station,” the eyewitness narrated.
The mother of the deceased, Adwoa Mary, devastated about her son’s death, said she had really lost a great person who was very supportive to her.
“I have lost something dear to my heart, and I pray the Almighty deals with all the perpetrators,” she said in tears.
The father of the deceased, Akwasi Boame, was also left heartbroken after hearing the news.
“I’m left along with my creator, and I think only God can heal my wounds for me.”
The police have picked up three suspects concerning the incident.
