A suspected arm robber has been beaten to death by some residents of Kasoa in the Awutu Senya East Municipality. The residents used broken bottles, sticks and stones in assaulting the suspected arm robber leading to his death. The residents disappeared to their various homes after killing the man, leaving the lifeless body on the street. The Director of the Natural Disaster Management Organization (NADMO), Kwame Amoateng, alongside his team came to for the body of the victim. They came after they were contacted by the Assemblyman of the neighborhood. Kwame Amoateng said that he has called in the police who have started investigating the issue however every resident in the neighborhood is denying knowledge of the incident saying that they do not know about the cause of the suspect’s death. Mob justice is increasingly becoming common in Ghana. Innocent people have lost their lives through the activities of mob justice. Being a suspect does not automatically make one guilty of a crime however some Ghanaians do not consider this and mostly prefer instant justice possibly because of delays and lack of trust in the law enforcement system. Several of mob justices have taken place in Ghana. It could be recalled that on the 29th of May, 2018, Captain Maxwell Adam Mahama was lynched to death by some residents of Denkyira Obuasi, a town in the Central Region of Ghana. Just like Captain Mahama, this suspected arm robber has also lost his life.
