36-year-old khebab seller murdered

A 36-year-old man has been found dead near the Kumasi Racecourse market in the Ashanti Region, with his throat slit.

Charles Ayirika’s body was found at the bank of the Subin River close to the Racecourse market in the morning of St. Valentine’s Day, Thursday, 14 February 2019.

The khebab seller was murdered a few metres away and dragged to the bank of the river. Blood stains were seen on the route to where his remains were dumped.

A knife with blood stains was also found at a spot where the assailants were suspected to have committed the murder, some traders told Class News’ Ashanti regional correspondent Elisha Adarkwah.

A brother to the deceased, Enoch Ayamga said Ayirika left the Racecourse where they sell khebab the previous evening together with his other brothers, to Abrepo Junction where they reside. He said he did not know when the deceased returned to the market and got murdered.

Mr Ayamga said his late brother had no problem with anybody for which he would be killed.

The necessary rituals have been performed by Otumfuo’s Sumankwahene, Baffour Asabre Kogyawoasu II and the body conveyed to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital morgue.
