Albert Donkor, one of the alleged robbery suspects in Nkoranza had returned to the robbery scene to retrieve laptops, cartridges and a knife left behind by his gang, a deep throat source has told Starrfm.
Information indicates the deceased suspect who returned on a motorbike posed as a “good samaritan” when he was caught up in the Police operation carried on the back of intelligence picked in relation to the robbery incident.
According to the source, the victims of the robbery incident identified the deceased as part of the robbery gang although he’d returned disguising himself.
Also, subsequent checks on the laptop by the police operation confirmed his involvement in the crime as a picture of him was found on the laptop retrieved by the police operation.
“He returned to the scene on a motorbike and in a sweater for the laptop and other things they left there but when he got there, he met the Police with the victims on the road. He approached them and said he could help track the suspects since he was from the town and knows a few leads. He then left the scene on his back
“When he left the scene, the regional intelligence unit which had come to augment the local police had combed the crime scene and found the laptop which had his picture as home screen, phone decoding software and other plots. The local police officers identified the deceased suspect through the picture on the laptop. The Police quickly stormed his home around 2am and met him awake. They confronted him with the evidence on the laptop and claims of the victims upon which he told the Police he was also a victim of the robbery but managed to escape. The Police then whisked him away in the hope of him helping trace the other suspects,” the source told Starr News.
It is however unclear the circumstances leading to the death of the suspect.
The Inspector-General of Police Dr. George Akuffo Dampare has however sent a high-powered Police delegation to the area to probe the events leading to the death of the deceased after speaking to his family.
Relatives of the deceased have rejected claims he was involved in any wrongdoing.
Meanwhile, calm has returned to the area after some youth in the town rampaged over the incident. The rioting youth invaded the Nkoranza Police station and freed suspects. The suspects have been rearrested by the Police.
