During the previous court hearing, due to heightened tensions, there was a significant presence of security personnel at the Asokore Mampong District Court to prevent certain members of the grieving family from attempting to harm the suspects. These family members had become emotionally charged and tried to assault the accused individuals.

Speaking to journalists after the court proceedings, the family of the deceased urged the Attorney General to ensure an expedited trial, especially as the prime suspect has confessed to committing the act.“What we the family are expecting is justice. As I always say, justice delayed is justice denied. This guy has already confirmed that he has committed the crime so we don’t need any delayance. We want them to do it fast and do it faster.
