Captain Maxwell Mahama<\/strong> <\/a><\/span>for their unfortunate loss.<\/p>\n[contextly_sidebar id=”yag0Qhm3PXxBEhyZV2kPiWzySLijFUQQ”]\u201cYour loss is a loss to the whole country. Your husband, son and brother lost his life serving his country.\u201d<\/p>\n
Flt Lt Rawlings added that, \u201cTaking the law into our hands in the manner the perpetrators of the act did was an act of cruelty. However, I implore the affected institution to remain calm as the security agencies investigate the matter.<\/p>\n
The former President added his voice to calls by many concerned Ghanaians over the lack of speedy investigation and prosecution of persons who perpetrate serious crimes such as armed robbery and murder.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the law does not seem to be giving people justice, such acts of cruelty resulting in the unfortunate loss of innocent life, is the end result. I call on the security agencies and the law courts to inspire confidence in the populace by acting swiftly and effectively when crimes are committed in our communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe recent acts of violence in Somanya and Kumasi cannot be taken in isolation. They go to expose a weakness in the general response to crime,\u201d former President Rawlings said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
