A communication team member of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Ricard Manuribe, has called on the police to fish out the persons who lynched the alleged motor thief at Kasoa to death.

According to him, although the young man allegedly robbed a rider of his motorbike, the group should not have taken the law into their own hands and lynched him to death.

A suspected motor thief was on Tuesday, March 16, 2021, lynched to death by an angry mob at Kosoa in the Central Region.

He was stripped naked and tied to a motorbike and dragged across the streets in the area.

Another rider ran over his testicles with a motor.

Meanwhile, the Police has launched a probe into the matter.
