Police officer who mourned his colleague killed in Ghana bullion van robbery turns out to be one of the robbers
One of the rogue police officers arrested in connection with the series of bullion van robberies that rocked Ghana last year, had mourned his colleague, Constable Emmanuel Osei, killed during one of the attacks.
Constable Osei, 25, was shot dead by the armed robbers at Adedenkpo, a suburb of James Town in Accra on Monday, June 14, 2021, while transporting money in a bullion van.
His friend and colleague, Constable Reindolph Gyimah Ansah aka Pablo, was among the robbers that attacked the bullion van.
Weeks after his death, Ansah took to Facebook to mourn Osei, writing: “U still dey in ma heart forever. Jah guide ur soul. RIP Osei.”
Meanwhile, Constable Ansah and one of the rogue officers, Lance Corporal Stephen Kwaku Nyame, were shot dead during a raid at Borteyman near Ashaiman on Tuesday, March 8, 2022.
The two officers were scheduled to appear in court on March 9, 2022, alongside others but they were made to lead a group of other policemen to raid the hideout of the other suspects.
During a gun battle between the officers and the criminals at the aforementioned destination, the two criminal policemen were gunned down and were pronounced dead on arrival at the police hospital where they were rushed for treatment.
