Asantehene to meet Zongo Dev't Minister over recent killings

The Asantehene Otumfuor Osei Tutu is scheduled to meet the Minister for Zongo Development Abubakar Sadiqq Friday afternoon over the killing of some alleged zongo  armed robbers  by the police on Tuesday. 

The Police announced on Tuesday that seven out of the eight suspected robbers, whose attack reportedly led to the death of a Police Officer with the SWAT Unit of the Ashanti Regional Police Command, had been gunned down after a gun battle. 

But families of some of the deceased persons have disputed the claims of the police. 

The families have suggested that the police wrongfully killed their “innocent” relatives who they say are not robbers as claimed by the police. 

Many others have since said the Police account of how the seven persons were killed was incoherent.  

Some angry youth took to the streets in the Ashanti Regional capital on Wednesday to protest over the killing.
