One victim of Ashaiman military brutality has died

Ernest Norgbey, Member of Parliament for Ashaiman, has revealed that one of the 184 people apprehended and brutalized by military officers has died.

Military officers surrounded Ashaiman after a soldier was killed.

Individuals and civil society organizations have widely criticised the officers’ brutality toward some residents.

“The presence of the committee and that of the Defence Minister has played a major role in bringing sanity to the community, so I am very much happy about the visit to the community. Just that, unfortunately, one of the victims of the torture died. It was a shock to most of the residents when the death was made known two days ago.” The MP said on Citi FM.
