Kwasea, did the policemen you murdered get justice? If you need a hangman, I'm willing to offer my services for free.

After slaughtering the innocent policemen this son of a.bitch wants to live? By the way, why is blood-letting so rampant in that part of Ghana?

Does Ghana have jury system and does it have death sentence? So how on earth have judges been sigle handedly issuing judgement including the alleged Mahatma assassin?

The only problem: no president wants to set the precedence of signing, so the culprit will he hanged.

All the presidents are simply cowards or fear they will lose votes from the area where the culprit comes from.

Many people have been killed by armed robbers yet the police have not been able to locate them. There is the assumption that those police officers have strong connections with the criminals.

His lawyer is mistaken. He said motive is paramount to the trial and that Kombian had no motive for killing the police officers.

our criminal law does not require proof of motive (unlike in the US). in Ghana you only need to prove mens rea (intent) and actus reus (physical act). Once these two are established, nothing more is required.

And so if his appeal is going to be centred around motive, then please be advised.
Mike Olongo, USA 8 years ago

Yes, Kombian had a motive. Kombian broke jail about four times and fleeing from the law. In his warped mind the sight of any police officer meant doom and had to kill them for his own survival.

Mr Johnson Kombian must not be a card holding member of the ruling NDC party, otherwise he would have walked free from the courts. Since currently Ghanaian justice as applied to only members of committed NDC criminals means making sure such hard-core offenders are mostly freed from courts without ever been charged. I therefore suggest his lawyer applies for NDC membership for Mr Kombian just before he appeals against the death penalty verdict, that's, if he is not already a member.

Why do you kill mosquitoes trying to suck your blood? Oh! I heard you just drive them away. Have you wondered why there are fewer of such crimes in countries with tougher punishments? Killing Kombian means he will not kill again, it will build confidence in the police, it will deter idiots who want to follow in Kombian's footsteps, it will bring closure to families of the policemen he killed and government gets to save our tax money. Kombian will pee and shit (kra ben) in his pants before he dies!

Do not hang him. Shoot him the way he shot the two Policemen. Appeal for what? Only in Ghana armed robbers appeal. Hand him over to the Soldiers to finish him. Curse be unto his generations. Kwasea
