Kume Preko Killers Identified?

Two young men have approached the leadership of the Alliance For Change (AFC) and volunteered an account of the circumstances surrounding the death of a 14 year-old JSS pupil and others who were killed by Commandos during the ''Kume Preko'' demonstration in 1995.

The two young men who have indicated their preparedness to appear before any properly constituted independent commission of enquiry have also identified one of the killers.

They gave the name of the commando who shot and killed Ahunu Hongar as Lantei Charles, stationed at the so-called Sankara Barracks at the Castle during the NDC era. Four people were killed during the peaceful demonstration in protest against the introduction of VAT by the NDC government.

The leader of the ''killer gang'' was identified by his nickname which is ''Black Shirt''. He was also a commando and based at the Sankara barracks.

The AFC is in the process of gathering solid evidence from various sources with which the Rawlings regime would be indicted before both Ghanaian and international public opinion.
