Three teenage girls are in police custody for allegedly killing 16-year-old Dennis Owusu Ansah, a recent Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) graduate set to start school on Thursday, November 7, 2024.
According to eyewitnesses, the incident occurred on Monday night around 7:30 p.m. in Anloga, Ashanti Region, following a dispute between Dennis and one of the girls while the trio was escorting a friend home. Reports indicate that during the altercation, one of the girls allegedly pulled out a knife and stabbed Dennis in the rib, causing severe bleeding.
Dennis was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
The victim’s family is devastated, with his mother and brother expressing deep shock and grief over the tragic event.
They are calling for justice to be served, hoping the investigation will lead to a swift resolution and accountability.
“We went to Tweneboa Kodua (SHS) on Saturday, and we were told to report on Thursday. So, I beg the child has indeed passed so please authorities should ensure that justice is served,” Stella Frimpong, the deceased mother said.
Evans Owusu Ansah, the deceased’s brother stressed that “What we the family require is that the government assist and ensure that justice is served because you can’t kill a boy just like that. For a child of 15 years, you can’t just stab someone’s child.
“So, the government must ensure the right thing is done. I am surprised a child of her age could do such a thing.”
