The late Cpl. Agartha Nana Nabin
The
husband of the policewoman who was killed by suspected armed robbers in Tamale
is yet to come to terms with the reality of his spouse’s murder, saying “I
still don’t believe that my wife is dead.”
Speaking
after the gruesome killing of his wife and looking visibly heartbroken, Paul
Nabin said, “It has not been easy for me; it’s almost 24hrs after the incident
and I still don’t believe that my wife is dead.”
The
widower was lamenting over the death of his wife when the acting IGP visited
the bereaved family in Tamale shortly after the incident.
Wondering
how he was going to cope with bringing up the three daughters she left behind aged
seven, five and two respectively, he lamented, “This is not what we planned and
we didn’t know she would die prematurely and leave the children for me to take
care of them, and I pray that God will give me strength to handle everything.”
Giving
a testimony about his wife, he described her as lovely, calm and respectful
woman.
“I
haven’t regretted marrying her because she has been a very good pillar in the
family and a source of inspiration to us,” he said.
Cpl.
Agartha Nana Nabin was shot dead at a police checkpoint on the Tamale to
Kumbungu road in the Northern Regional capital.
Suspected
armed robbers alighted from a car after the driver was beckoned to stop and one
of them fired at the woman killing her instantly. They made away with two
weapons from the crime scene even after one of the deceased officer’s colleague
fired at them futilely.
Arrests In Tamale
Five
suspects have been arrested for questioning over the murder of the policewoman,
DAILY
GUIDE has learnt.
The
law enforcement officers involved in the operation fired and wounded one of the
suspects during the operation on Thursday evening.
The
operation was conducted by a combined team of cops from Accra and their Tamale
counterparts leading to the retrieval of the stolen weapons from the crime
scene where the female police officer was killed.
Also
recovered from the room of one of the suspects were camouflage uniforms reportedly
used by the criminals when they killed the woman.
It
is yet to be established whether or not the operation was facilitated by a tip-off
especially after the police announced a bounty of GH¢10,000 for information
that would lead to the arrest of the suspects.
The acting IGP during his Tamale visit promised that the police would leave no stone unturned in searching for the perpetrators of the heinous crime. The promise appears to have been fulfilled.
