The Spokesperson for the former Bimbilla Chief, Osman Kika has said the Police in Bimbilla should be held responsible for the recent clashes in the town.<\/p>\n

According to him, the police had been very irresponsible and negligent because they were not at post<\/span> during the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe expect the Police to be very answerable to this because we are aware that they run 24 hours security guards but<\/span> \u00a0the Police left there as early as 5: 00 in the evening,\u201dMr. Kika<\/span> said.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Eyewitness News<\/strong>, Mr. Kika<\/span> also called for an immediate prosecution of the perpetrators of the heinous crime, saying \u201cwe expect that the perpetrators are brought to book in consonance with the laws of Ghana\u201d<\/p>\n

The chief of Bimbilla, Naa Dasana Abdulai Andani II\u00a0and two other people were killed by some unknown assailants at his Palace on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Narrating the incident, Mr. Kika<\/span> said about eight armed men stormed the late Chief\u2019s Palace around 7: 00 pm and started firing gun shots at the Palace.<\/p>\n

According to him, two individuals were also killed by the group for attempting to find out what was happening at the Palace.<\/p>\n

Mr. Kika<\/span> said the incident had rendered Bimbilla lifeless. \u201cBimbilla<\/span> is calm, very quiet, and very deserted, all the streets are empty and vacant.\u201d<\/p>\n
