Sam Leonard Richard took ill on campus on 6 July 2020, while preparing to sit for his final examination. The business student died on July 7, 2020, after suffering stomach pains for more than three hours without being given any medical attention. According to the angry students, who went on the rampage following their colleague’s death, the school authorities shunned the now-deceased out of fear of contracting COVID-19. The headmistress of the KNUST Senior High School and two other teachers were interdicted after the death of the student. In court this month, the A-G had argued that although Edwin Sam had a right to information, they were justified in refusing to give him access to the report.
