The Northern Regional Police command has dismissed reports that the recent killing on the Gambaga\/ Nakpanduri road was orchestrated by suspected armed robbers as reported.<\/p>\n
Four persons including two policemen, a driver and banker of the East Mamprusi Community Bank in Gambaga were last week killed at Nasoani in a money carrier.<\/p>\n
Earlier media reports speculated that they were killed by suspected armed robbers but police preliminary investigations have proven otherwise.<\/p>\n
According to the Northern Regional Police Commander, DCOP Ken Yeboah, the incident was well planned and executed by the unknown assailants.<\/p>\n
He said the perpetrators laid ambush on the rough road and sporadically shot into the vehicle which the occupants were travelling with.<\/p>\n
It is yet unclear what necessitated the bizarre incident but DCOP Ken Yeboah told Citi News<\/strong> the perpetrators will not go unpunished.<\/p>\n He said residents of the community where the killing took place were unwilling to cooperate with the police in their investigations.<\/p>\n Citi News<\/strong> gathered that two of the deceased, the banker and driver of the East Mamprusi Community Bank have been laid to rest in accordance with Islamic practice.<\/p>\n This was after autopsy was carried on their remains at the Tamale Teaching Hospital.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By: Abdul Karim Naatogmah\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Northern Regional Police command has dismissed reports that the recent killing on the Gambaga\/ Nakpanduri road was orchestrated by suspected armed robbers as reported.
