Family of illegal miner who shot dead Sunday is pleading with government to release their son’s corpse for burial.
The body has been deposited at the Obuasi hospital morgue for investigation following controversy over who shot him.
31-year-old Kwabena Agyemang was hit in a clash between illegal miners and the Vanguard Taskforce on Sunday at Anyimadu in the Ashanti region.
Galamseyers of Anyimadukrom and the military are accusing one another of killing Kwabena Agyeman.
