Tension reportedly erupted at the Offinso Police Station after a group of Aboboyaa riders allegedly abandoned the body of their deceased colleague in the station’s yard following a confrontation with police officers.
According to sources, the riders were part of a funeral procession transporting the body of their late colleague for burial when police officers allegedly stopped them.
The officers reportedly accused the group of causing traffic congestion and public disturbance along the route.
What began as a routine intervention is said to have escalated into a heated confrontation between the mourners and the police.
Eyewitnesses claim that, in protest, the riders decided to leave the corpse at the police station and walked away. They allegedly told the officers that if they would not allow them to continue with the burial arrangements, then the police should take responsibility for burying the deceased themselves.
The unusual incident drew attention from residents and bystanders, with many expressing shock over the turn of events.
As of the time of filing this report, the Ghana Police Service had not officially commented on the incident, and it remains unclear how the matter was eventually resolved.
Further details are expected as investigations continue.
