We are deeply saddened to report the tragic killing of Gideon Adu Boakye, an officer stationed at the Nsawam Prisons. The unfortunate incident took place at Kasoa Iron City in the Awutu Senya Municipality of the Central Region while he was visiting his mother for the weekend.
According to Eric Akoto, the brother of the deceased, Gideon was attacked a short distance from the roadside and subsequently stabbed. His lifeless body was callously discarded in a nearby gutter. Witnesses in the vicinity attested to his futile pleas for mercy during the confrontation with his assailants.
Gideon, who was in his early 30s and unmarried, leaves behind a community in shock and mourning. His body has been placed at the Police Hospital Mortuary as the family appeals to the relevant authorities to expedite investigations and ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.
Described by his neighbors as a gentle and kind-hearted individual, Gideon's untimely demise has left a void in the community. We join in expressing our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.
As we await further details on this senseless act of violence, we urge for swift action to be taken to address the circumstances that led to this tragedy. Our thoughts are with all those affected by this devastating loss.
