Woman appeals to IGP as husband dies after being in police custody

A heartbroken wife, Madam Vicentia Aboagyewaa, is appealing to the Inspector General of Police (IGP) and state authorities to investigate the sudden death of her husband, Mr. Yaw Harrison, an electrician and father of two, who allegedly died under suspicious circumstances at the Dodowa DOVVSU office in the Greater Accra Region.

According to Madam Aboagyewaa, her husband was falsely accused by a neighbor of stealing GHS3,500, bread, and attempting to rape a 12-year-old girl.

Despite his protests of innocence, Mr. Harrison was arrested and detained in police cells for three days, exacerbating his pre-existing high blood pressure condition.
