Constable Kove |
A Police operation
to arrest suspected criminals at Aflao in the Ketu South Municipality has led
to the killing of one the police men, Friday dawn.
Constable
Wonder Kove, of the Form Police Unit (FPU) was reportedly shot by an unknown
assailant, when he led his colleagues on a raid at Zorokpome, a suspected
criminal den around the Aflao border.
Kove,
believed to be in his late 20s was part of a police team deployed from the
Police Headquarters in Accra to the area to clampdown on the increasing
criminal activities there.
It is,
however, unclear where the bullet came from as a police source claimed there
was no exchange of fire during the operation.
Wonder’s junior
brother, Promise Kove, told Volta Online, his senior brother’s
sudden death is unbearable to him and his family, stating that, ‘he is the one
taking care of us all… as I speak with you, and I’m even in his room in Accra.’
‘I have
been staying with him, ever since he joined the Police Service about two years
ago… he only left for the Aflao operation on Sunday and just this morning, one
of his colleagues called to tell me that he is dead’ distraught Promise
narrated.
