If you did anything fishy, God will surely reward you and or your generation by divine authority which will never leave your generation. However, if you did nothing wrong, my God protect you. I am fumed about such evil killings in our society but the people in government who re to protect society. Especially when they kill the youth and the innocent ones like this and Michael Brown etc.

May the soul of the boy rest in peace.

Ghana Police should also ensure at all time to exercise a bit of professionalism when dealing people which will bring peace and cordial relationship with the citizens.

My final word goes to the bereaved family to exercise a bit of restrain and seek proper advice on how best they can seek justice for their son.

Instead of the people burning tyres and the chaos in Krofrom about Dr Sampene's report, they should go for independent autopsy from a different doctor of their choice to allay or confirm all of thier suspicion about the caused of death if thier son.

Burning tyres is not the answer and rather portrays we ashantes as unlightened people which shouldn't be the case.

That's exactly my position. The immediate cause of the heart issue lies in the manhandling of the victim by Police just after his arrest.

The doctor must have given us "the cause" of death, but another IMPORTANT thing the public needs to know is "what prompted" that heart attack that led to the 22-year old's death? This is where the Police's alleged "assault" that ensued soon after the victim's arrest MUST be looked into.

Call the journalist who filed the report to find out if he or she read the whole report and did not find what you are asking about? You only read stories by half baked journalist and start spewing nonsense. Go read the full autopsy report yourself. Condemn the action of the youth and stop the madness.

Did the doctor notice any lacerations or cuts on the body of the deceased. Did he notice any bleeding both internally and externally? He may have died of cardiac arrest but what caused that.

Maybe the police brought another person. So go there and look at the body and verify if that person is a right one. The police can do anything. Unbelievable.

I think they made the mistake right from the beginning, and I did said that to a friend in UK here , that there's nothing positive going to come out of this in favour of the family. Obviously they should have known this to be more than possible in such a corrupt country. They should have sought for an independent pathologist. Anyway let give everthing in the hands of God.

Doctor, well done. Anyone who disagree with you should ask for a second opinion. The police will continue to protect us from these animal armed robbers who should not live among human beings because armed robbers are animals and heartless who have no mercy for any one. They kill, rob and rape. May all armed robbers in Ghana be cursed from them to their twenty generations. This incident will not stop police to defend us. Well done doctor and well done police. Any armed robber who will insult me. I will insult them back. No one should take the law into their own hands. If the police has made a mistake, no one has the right to commit another crime. Concerning this matter the only person who knows the truth is God. Innocent people should not run from the police, if he hasn't run from the police this incident would not have happened. People should allow investigation to be conducted.

What caused Tawiah's cardiac arrest? The Pathologist has given the public the effect only as due to cardiac arrest but what really caused the arrest ? Was it due to the manhandling, beatings or shock ? Has the deceased had cardiac problems before according to his medical documents or history ? Never should the Pathologist(professional) insult the deceased's family. Rather, it's down to the pathologist to make known his findings of the post-mortem he performed. It can then be accepted or challenged by any of the parties. But the Pathologist's findings outlining the effect should also include the possible causes of the cardiac arrest where the deceased died suddenly in the hands of the police. There are witnesses to the police arrest and subsequent beatings of the deceased.

Read well. The cause of death is heart failure and not cardiac arrest. The pathologist never said cardiac arrest.

Your sweat didn't pay for his PHD. He only explained the psychology of bereavement. This Pathologist hasn't done anything wrong. If people's sweat on cocoa farming could produce PHD everybody would have attained PHD in Ghana.

The poor and brutality, I am just imagining that the family doesn't even have legal representation to help them through this, they are just swerving through this tumult by common sense. They really need an unbiased view from, not a government institutionalized health expert. The report is seem unbalanced on the scales of justice. Help the family get legal representation so we can find out the truth.

These mad people we called the police brutalised this young man and killed him. If it was natural death how come that it was the police who brought him to Kath? What was the police doing at that time? How come somebody with such condition could robbed and be chased by the police at that time. Dr I don't think the family is in self_denial, you are just being stupid and unprofessional. Why will you say that he died a natural death when you could have said his heart failed which might have been caused by something? Anyway,has somebody ever died without any of his organ failing?
