According to them, claims that the young man, Simon Yindoog Nawak, was a suspected armed robber were false as he had no record of any criminal acts. A special Anti-Robbery squad and the police gunned down one of the three suspected armed robbers who murdered two Police officers at Zuarungu in the Upper East Region. The suspect Laayaame Simon alias Yendu, 34, was gunned down through an intelligence-led operation at Kpatia in the Talensi District. The Police said a special targeted intelligence-led operation is being carried to get the rest of the suspects arrested. Reacting to this development, residents and family of Simon Yindoog Nawak wondered why the police failed to apprehend him alive to assist with the investigation but rather shot him.
