Some
unidentified
persons
have
set
ablaze
the
house
of
the
fetish
priest
who
is
alleged
to
have
shot
dead
three
persons
at
Barniekrom
in
the
Ahafo
Ano
South
West
District
of
the
Ashanti
Region.
On
Tuesday,
2nd
July
2024,
a
fetish
priest,
Osman
Majeed
allegedly
shot
dead
three
persons
who
he
accused
of
attacking
him.
The
suspect
Osman
Majeed
went
into
hiding
after
the
incident
and
is
still
at
large.
In
an
alleged
reprisal
attack,
some
unknown
persons
have
set
the
house
of
the
suspect
ablaze.
The
assemblyman
for
Barniekrom
electoral
area,
Kingsley
Asare
who
confirmed
the
incident
to
Channel
One
News
noted
that
although
calm
has
been
restored
in
the
area,
they
want
the
police
to
keep
patrolling
the
area
to
maintain
the
situation.
“The
chief
informed
me
that
information
reaching
him
indicates
that
the
residence
of
Komfo
Osman
has
been
burnt.
That
was
yesterday
in
the
morning.
So
I
did
organise
my
unit
committee
members
to
go
to
the
place
to
confirm
the
incident.
“So
upon
getting
there,
we
saw
one
of
the
buildings
belonging
to
Osman
burnt.
Yes,
we
have
officially
reported
the
incident
to
the
police.
Though
the
community
has
returned
to
normal,
I
still
believe
the
security
services
will
continue
monitoring
the
situation
at
Barniekrom.”
Meanwhile,
one
person
who
is
believed
to
be
a
friend
of
the
suspect
has
been
arrested
by
the
police.
