Following the death of Captain Maxwell Adam Mahama, a military officer with the 5th Infantry Battalion (5BN) at Burma Camp in Accra but on detachment duties at Denkyira Boase in the Upper Denkyira West District of the Central region who was lynched by residents on suspicion of being an armed robber, Captain Rtd Nkrabea Effah-Dartey has said on Okay FM’s morning Show ‘Ade Akye Abia’ that it is very difficult to know exactly what happened on that day.
He said, “I am sure he never expected anything like that happening when he was going for the jogging but because he is an Infantry soldier, he decided to pick his weapon for the jogging for any eventualities,”
“I am sure he must have been taken completely by surprise when the attack came and so before he could read between the lines to know what is happening and even pull out his gun to fire, he was under attacked.”
