The residents claimed Captain Mahama was a robber as\u00a0he was in civilian clothing at the time, and with a\u00a0gun.<\/p>\n
Police urges ‘guilty’ to surrender<\/strong><\/p>\nThe police in a later statement confirming William Baah’s arrest said: “the Inspector General of Police assures the public that police will employ all means possible to uncover circumstances leading to the murder and those behind it.”<\/p>\n
