An alleged robber has been killed and burnt to death by some residents of Kasoa.

The move by the residents follow series of attacks on residents including a 15 year old petty trader who was stabbed and robbed during the early hours of Friday while on her way to the market.

Some residents of Kasoa have killed and burnt an alleged robber to death.

According to an eyewitness account, the robber was brutally lynched and later burnt to death after he had confessed of his crimes.

Recounting the incidence to an Accra based radio station, the eye-witnessed revealed;“They have been arresting them lately. Some days ago, they arrested one and took him to the police station and that case is still pending.

“But this one was just arrested this morning while I was on my way to work. I saw the crowd interrogating him and then later they set him ablaze and killed him. I am told they were three in number but they arrested just him,” he stated.

Mob killings remain one of the illegal ways residents especially in Accra deal with alleged robbers, a move most Ghanaians justify as feasible due to the failed justice services meted out to these robbers.
