The Police made the report known on Tuesday, when Gregory Afoko, junior brother of NPP Chairman, Paul Afoko was brought before an Accra Circuit Court.
Superintendent Francis Baah told the court the deceased person died from "shock lungs and extensive acid burns," and preferred murder charges against the suspect.

Meanwhile, an Accra Magistrate Court has remanded Gregory Afoko to Police custody. Read more
