Police sources say the incident was reported to the Kasseh Police Station by the manager of the filling station, Bright Mishiwo and a pump attendant of the station, Philip Djinesey.

According to police report, the pump attendant upon reporting to work on Friday morning discovered the lifeless body of the security man who was tied up with a cloth in one of the rooms.

Following a report filed by the fuel station manager and the pump attendant, a police patrol team was dispatched to the scene and “found the lifeless body of the security man, Akwerteh Kweitsu.”

Police say the perpetrators of the crime had tied up the deceased’s legs, his hands to his back and his nose with pieces of rags before allegedly killing him.
