VIDEO: Assemblyman of Kyekyewere East Reportedly Shot And Killed 2 People For Stealing Cocoa Bags

The Assemblyman for Denkyira Kyekyewere in the Upper Denkyira East Municipality Kwabena Boateng, has shot and killed two individuals suspected of stealing from his cocoa shed.

The incident occurred around 2:00 a.m. on Wednesday, August 21.

According to Citi News sources, the suspects, identified as 16-year-old Razak and 20-year-old Agyaku, had been stealing cocoa bags from the Assemblyman’s shed for some time.

Despite reporting to the police, the thefts continued, resulting in the loss of 35 bags of cocoa.

On the night of the incident, the Assemblyman allegedly caught the suspects attempting to steal again and fired at them, killing both instantly.

Family members of the deceased have expressed shock and grief over the incident.

The mother of one of the suspects said, “He is my son and he is learning a trade. His boss called and asked that he come back to work since he has not been going to work for a while. I even cursed him and later reverted for not heeding my advice. The Agyaku guy is the one influencing my son. They even stole from a queen mother.

“I even consulted a fetish priest to find out why my son was behaving like that and it turned out that the Agyaku guy was the bad influence. I am sad about the incident.

The Assemblyman has been arrested and is currently in police custody, assisting with the investigation.
