Ritual killing: Youth set ablaze vehicle of traditional priestess’ husband in Suhum

A vehicle belonging to the husband of the traditional priestess at the centre of the murder of a 10-year-old near Kasoa for ritual purposes was last night set ablaze by irate youth of Amanase near Suhum in the Eastern Region.

Citi News sources say, the youth who accused the man and his accomplices of trying to abduct another kid in the area for money rituals angrily set fire into his Toyota Camry vehicle.

The irate youth who later apprehended the suspects and took them to the chiefs’ palace allegedly pelted stones at the police team deployed to the place.

Reports indicate that the action by the youth ended up damaging the side window glass of vehicle with registration number GP 2867 belonging to the Kibi Police Divisional Patrol.

Some of the residents who spoke to journalists vowed to take the law into their own hands if the police will not deal with the issues.
