A second year KNUST student has been killed by a tailor in the kumasi metropolis. In the bizarre incident, the 25 year old tailor apprentice in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region, Emmanuel Boateng is reported to have murdered a second-year Bachelor of Science student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) after luring him to a location in anticipation of paying a debt he owed the deceased.
Per information available to the Police, the deceased person is a friend of the suspect.
DSP Godwin Ahianyo, who is public relations officer for the Ashanti Regional Police Command, “the suspect lured the deceased to a nearby [location] and killed him. According to the suspect, he owed the deceased an amount of GH¢300 and couldn’t pay up when he (the deceased) came asking, for which reason he killed him.”
“We find the story a little hard to believe because why will he resort to taking his friend’s life over GH¢300. We suspect there is more and are going to ensure we get the full details.”
We will update you on this developing story coming from the Ashanti Region.
