E/R: Two Police Officers Allegedly Assaulted A Washing Bay Boy At Mamaso And He Dies As a Result
Kwesi Boateng, 17, died following an alleged attack by two police officers at Mamaso in the Birem North District of the Eastern Region.
Justice is what the family members are requesting.
The dead was employed by a washing bay at Maamaso, a neighborhood of New Abirem in the Eastern Region, up to his death.
Friends and family allege that the adolescent was assaulted by the two police officers for what they call a minor error.
Co-worker of the deceased narrated, “I was working on a vehicle before the police guys came. Kwesi took the water machine from me to blow his carpet. The water gushed on the policemen. They confronted Kwasi, he replied them, that it was not in their direction.”
He continued: “The police got furious and reported to the owner of the washing bay.
Our boss kept apologising, all I saw was that one policeman booted Kwasi to the floor.”
The father of the deceased, Chairman Akimodis, said his son died after the beatings from the officers.
“My son was beaten, he died after we took him to the Abirem Police Station. A thorough investigation must be done to know who killed my son. Else I will use my ways, I come from Larteh. I will be forced to summon all the family of the Policemen.”
The victim was hospitalised at the New Abirem Government Hospital after the assault before his death.
The New Abirem Government Hospital is yet to officially make public reports of the deceased’s condition while at the facility.

Family members have been to the morgue, insisting to have the body.
