Douglas,

I am sorely disappointed at you for making that useless comment in response to a grievous recurring canker in our developing country, even though I know you don't give a rat's tail about what I or anyone thinks about you.

I don't know which ethnic group you comes from but I certainly can deduce that you're an NDC supporter. I would therefore like to note that how most of you NDC and NPP supporters have regressed serious national issues to a competition of insults is indeed pathetic. It shows clearly how hollow and mediocre thinkers you are.

Police brutality and wanton killings are serious issues internationally. It led to the big riots here in the UK. In the US, the Police have become one of the dominant killers of blacks. We cannot sit down and allow such wanton killings to continue in Ghana, without any repercussions at all. I am therefore urging the young men of Krofoum to go underground and revenge this killing if no action is taken by the IGP to arrest and put on trial the murderers.

If the Police should murder any of my siblings, I shall hire assassins to look up those involved and have all of them shot! Ghana is a bloody, lawless country without any justice for victims of official abuse!

The Ministry of Interior and the Ghana Bar Association and all people who love justice must do something about this. We don't seem to care when such things happen. Are we sub-humans or what?

What a sad story. Armed Robbery and other high crimes have pushed the police to their wits end. May the soul of the guy RIP.
It is just sad that sometimes our police show so much unprofessional behaviors. It is madness to taser some one, take him into custody and still beat him with the butt of a gun and batons. If the guy was resisting arrest, that would have been understandable but not when the people of the area are even pleading that the case of Tawiah is a mistaken identity. This case needs to be terribly investigated.

The police must be sued big time. Even if he was a criminal what gives them the right to kill him?

If it comes to death, everyone that kills has be kill or sentence to many years imprisonment. Ghana police always prove unprofessionalism.

The intimidation, violence and fear tactics is being rolled out by the John Kudalor-led Police service with the intent to cower into submission the righteous anger and indignation at the collapsed state of this country, through the arbitrary gruesome murders of Ghanaians in this country, under the pretext of apprehending thieves.
Since when did the police service assume the role of judge, jury and executioner in this country?
The increasing spate of police brutality and violence leading to the death of innocent Ghanaians a policy position of the Mahama NDC gov't to subjugate the masses and also, seek to quell rising discontent through the use of force and intimidation is an escalating potential for disaster and chaos in this country.
The Peace Council, the traditional authorities, CSO'S, various stakeholders must make their voices heard in this depraved and debased state of affairs, by a failed President seeking to use the security apparatus of state to hold onto power he has lost.
The Police Council and the IGP must be called to order in this reckless attempt to instill fear in the masses and cower them into submission against rising discontent all in the name of apprehending thieves, because Ghanaians are very much aware where the true thieves are, and wouldn't want the roles reversed, since it will be a very disastrous and chaotic situation for all of us

What do you say "police", you have killed the man you are paid to protect. It is not the first time you have done this. The 2 teachers who went to help students under attack by armed robbers were also murdered by police, Some nice gentlemen who were answering the call for help by a woman in Taifa were all shot dead by police. Your job is to arrest and charge the suspected criminal, that is it, do not take the law in your hands and murder innocent people.

such cases must be well investigated and be resolved in maturity manner not retired police from chasing the criminals in Kumasi it shouldn't be political party policemen, police must proof their professionalism at all times.
