Man allegedly shot dead and burnt along with motorbike in Binduri

A man has allegedly been killed at Binduri in the Upper East Region, and his body burnt along with a motorcycle he is believed to have been riding.

The identity of the assailant(s) remains unknown, but the attack is suspected to be linked to the ongoing chieftaincy conflict in Bawku, which has recently spilled over into neighboring districts like Pusiga and Binduri.

Details of the incident are unclear, but witnesses suggest the man may have been ambushed.

A photograph of his lifeless body shows a suspected assailant standing nearby, with his shadow indicating he might have been carrying a rifle.

The victim is thought to have been shot before his body was dragged into nearby dry grass and set on fire, along with the motorcycle.

The police have not yet issued an official statement on the incident, which follows closely after disturbances in Bawku between police and Kusasi youth, leading to one death last Wednesday.
