Amnesty International Ghana has said it is “outraged” at the news of the shooting and killing of Ahmed Hussein-Suale, who has been identified as an undercover investigator and a key member of Anas Aremeyaw Anas’s Tiger Eye private investigative team.
Ahmed was shot three times, twice in the chest and another in the neck by unknown assailants late Wednesday night at Madina in Accra while driving home.
AI said in a statement that: “This incident and that of Mr. Joseph Miigaai Jakperuk, the Deputy Distribution Manager of Accra East Region of GWCL; and Mrs Josephine Asante, the Marketing and Public Relations Manager of the Tema Port, have the potential to put Ghanaians into a state of fear, insecurity and worry”.
These incidents, AI said, threaten the right to life and liberty of Ghanaians and others in Ghana.
The human rights group said: “The right to life is sacrosanct and must be given the utmost priority as identified in Article 13 (1) of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution as well as the right to liberty as stipulated in Article 14 (1).
“We call on the Ghana Police Service to immediately move into action to investigate and bring the perpetrators of all reported cases of killings to book.
“They must make necessary aspects of their investigation reports and further actions on these cases known to the public to help limit potential state of fear, insecurity and worry.
