Earlier this week, the Police gunned down a notorious rapist and armed robber in Yeji in the Bono East Region.
The deceased, identified as Ernest Akorli aka Jerigoji, is reported to have recently sexually assaulted a 20-year-old lady, after which he murdered her.
Akorli met his death on Monday after engaging the police in a gun battle when they went to arrest him.
