POLICE INVESTIGATE STRANGE DEATH (PAGE 35)

From Emmanuel Modey, Hohoe

The Krachi Divisional Police are investigating a case of alleged murder of one Yussif Musah, a native of Navrongo, in the Upper East Region.
The deceased, Musah, was contracted by one Sunday Ayodeli, 42, a sub-contractor for KASAPA, a mobile service provider, to blast a rock with dynamite in one of the pits they were digging to erect the KASAPA mast.
After some time, the deceased could not be traced until news broke out that a corpse had been found lying in a path leading to Obikyere village near Kpassain in the Nkwanta District.
The Nkwanta police found the dead body in a state of partial decomposition and it was that of a male; it was lying naked, the stomach was burst open and the intestines had gushed out. His clothes were lying beside him.
Sunday, who had contracted the deceased, has been arrested by the Nkwanta Police and arraigned before the Krachi East Magistrates’ Court at Dambai. The court presided over by Mr C.K. Dorleku has granted the suspect, Sunday, bail to reappear on August 5, 2008. He pleaded not guilty to a charge of provisional murder.
