Sexy Don Don Lawyer Questions why the Police Failed to Involve Wife of J B Danquah and an Alleged Mistress in MP’s Murder Investigation

Lawyer for Daniel Aseidu, the young man accused of the murder of a former MP for Abuakwa North Constituency Joseph Boakye Danquah Adu, has questioned why the police failed to involve some individuals in their investigation of the incident.

Yaw Dankwah , during cross examination of prosecution witness , ASP Augustine Nkrumah, queried the investigator on why an alleged girlfriend of the late MP who supposedly attacked and brutally stabbed him in a hotel room in 2010 was not invited for questioning after the killing of JB Danquah Adu in 2016.

ASP Augustine Nkrumah, answering questions on why some persons, including an alleged mistress of the late Joseph Boakye Danquah, were not involved in their investigations, said although the police investigation team had knowledge of an alleged attack, on the MP, the woman in question, was not involved in the investigations.

Yaw Dankwah, lawyer for Daniel Aseidu, also raised issues with the failure of the police to treat the wife of the late MP as a suspect following his murder on February 9, 2016.

He described as strange, why the wife who slept with her husband in the same house but in separate connecting rooms, was not held as a suspect, seeing that after the MP was murdered for a significant period of time, no one had been arrested in connection with the crime.

The lawyer suggested to the witness that because the police did not consider the wife as a suspect although she was with her dead husband, in the house for sometime, the investigation team waited until February 22, 2016, to take a statement from her.

This the lawyer claimed gave the wife sometime to allegedly cook up a story which the witness had already told the court was troubling.

ASP Nkrumah responded in the negative and said that it did not take a long time for the suspect to be arrested. He said the first accused , Daniel Aseidu, was arrested a day or two after the incident.

The lawyer further questioned why none of the household members of the late former MP including his children and a house help, who opened the door and had access to the house was not invited by the police for questioning.

Mr Dankwah also stressed on comments by MP for Assin Central Kennedy Ohene Agyapong, after the murder of JB Danquah Adu.

He said Mr. Agyapong made serious allegations and offered interviews, which indicated that he had information about the death of the late MP.

ASP Nkrumah agreed with the lawyer. Mr Dankwah additionally questioned if the investigation team invited Kennedy Agyapong, to which the witness answered that they didn’t invite him.

ASP Augustine Nkrumah, was also asked if the investigation team found allegations by the lawmaker , who was also a colleague of the deceased irrelevant and if he suggested to the team to invite Mr Agypong for questioning.

He responded that he did not work in isolation and also said he did not give any recommendation to his superiors to invite Mr Agyapong on the matter.

Following his response, Lawyer Dankwah questioned the witness if his bosses ignored Mr Agyapong , because they were scared and worried about information he would have revealed in the witness seat. ASP Nkrumah disagreed with the lawyer, on his claim.

Daniel Asiedu and Vincent Bosso are being tried for their alleged roles in the death of the JB Danquah-Adu at his residence at Shiashie in Accra in 2016. ASP Nkrumah, is the eighth prosecution witness to testify in the matter. The Court returns on Tuesday for further cross examination.
