Four persons have sustained multiple cutlass wounds in the Nyamebeye-Beposo community near the Newmont Resettlement Camp at Kenyase in the Ahafo region.

A group of young men who were wielding all kinds of deadly weapons attacked some inhabitants for preventing some workers of Newmont Goldcorp from forcefully invading their lands.

The alleged assailants, who claimed to have been sent by Newmont and Kenyase No.2  Traditional Council to carry out their dastardly act, reportedly told the residents that nothing would happen to them because they have the full backing of “big men”.

The four persons who were severely injured in the process are Adams Awinde, John Ayariga, Charles Adam and Imoro Goji.

One Anane Folly, who was videoing the brutality was not spared by the heavily-built “thugs” as he was allegedly beaten.

They were all rushed to the hospital and are currently nursing their injury. 

There has been no arrest at the time this report was being filed.
