6 arrested in connection with lynching of prison officer in Kasoa

Six suspects have been arrested in connection with the brutal lynching of Lance Corporal Gideon Adu Boakye, a prison officer stationed at the Nsawam Medium Security Prison.

The tragic incident occurred on 29th September 2024 at Kasoa Iron City.

The Ghana Prisons Service confirmed that four females and two males have been taken into custody.

The suspects have been remanded as investigations into the killing continue. Lance Corporal Adu Boakye had been on a visit to his relatives in Kasoa when he was allegedly attacked by a group of unknown assailants, leading to his death.

The Prisons administration is working closely with the police to uncover the full circumstances behind the attack, while they have vowed to ensure justice is served.

In a statement, the Prisons Service condemned the act of “instant justice” and cautioned the public to report suspicious activities to the authorities rather than taking matters into their own hands.

They warned that such actions often lead to harm against innocent people.

The Service has extended condolences to the family and friends of the slain officer and urged all prison officers to remain calm as steps are being taken to bring the perpetrators to justice.
