Relatives of a 38-year old robbery suspect who was shot and killed by Police in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region, have said they will use all legal means to seek justice.<\/p>\n

Awudu Osman, popularly called, Awudu Ninja, was gunned down with his alleged accomplice at Sepe, a suburb of Kumasi on Thursday.<\/p>\n

According to police, the deceased was mentioned in their investigations when they arrested a gang that had been terrorizing residents in parts of the metropolis.<\/p>\n

Police officers were\u00a0dispatched to his residence to search for a pistol he was believed to be hiding there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”T3Hvb7rGGTW2j7lIkSNUUVxrmMKh3zJR”]The police said the suspect, along with his accomplice were both gunned down when they attempted escaping in handcuffs.<\/p>\n

Relatives of Osman maintain that, he was innocent and have vowed to use all legal means to seek justice.<\/p>\n

His pregnant widowed wife, 33-year old Humu Musah, could not hold her tears as she narrated that the Police officers who came to search the house tasered her deceased husband, hit him with the butt of their guns and subjected him to severe beatings.<\/p>\n

Humu said she fell in the process when the police ordered her to the exact place the weapons were hidden.<\/p>\n

She fears she could suffer a miscarriage as a result.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have left everything to God. It’s God who will seek vengeance for me. Let\u2019s even put my husband\u2019s death aside, but the inhumane treatment the police subjected me to without considering my condition was pitiful. They pushed me to show where the pistols were and dragged me anyhow. Will they have treated their pregnant wives the same as they did to me? I leave everything to God. He will judge us all\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The entire Tewobaabi community has been thrown into a state of shock and mourning following the death of the suspect.<\/p>\n

The deceased’s brother, Hussein Abdul Rahaman, said the family will seek justice.<\/p>\n

Zongo Chief for the Tewobaabi area, Sarki Alhaji Basiru Toofa, says they will resort to the Holy Quran to seek justice for the deceased.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe those who believe in the smaller gods, we will turn to the gods to seek justice. And those of us who believe in the Holy Quran, will use it to curse whoever is behind the death of our brother.\u201d<\/p>\n

The deceased left behind a pregnant wife and three children.<\/p>\n

Police have deposited the body at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) for further investigations.<\/p>\n
