6 arrested for beating a 28-year-old mechanic to death

Ghana Police Service have arrested six people suspected to be involved in the lynching of a 28-year-old mechanic in Aburansa in the Central Region.

According to adomonline.com, the 28-year-old mechanic, Festus Eduafo, was lynched because some residents claimed he looked like a murderer.
