The security man Iddrisu Haruna, who was on duty at Mobik Energy, a fuel station was murdered by robbers who went to the fuel station for their robbery activities.

The robbers tied his hands behind him and hit him with a stick at the back of his neck taking away an undisclosed amount of money and the DVR, which is the recorder for the secret cameras.

The police conveyed the body to the Apinto Government Hospital Mortuary for further investigation. Some residents who spoke to GhanaWeb believe the robbers realised the security man knew them and could blow the alarm for their arrest which is why they killed him.
