An alleged mobile phone thief has been beaten to pulp at Tabora, a suburb in the Greater Accra Region.
An eyewitness who wants to remain anonymous told Nyankonton Mu Nsem on Rainbow Radio 87.5 that not even the plea from the alleged thief could stop his attackers.
He is said to have explained to the attackers he was not a thief and that he was prepared to give out his mother’s contact to them so they will call her.
But the angry mob refused and went ahead to attack him.
The victim bled and some of his attackers were heard saying they will beat him and sympathize with him.
They threatened to unleash mayhem on any other person who would try and steal in the area.
One of the attackers said “If you had died, you would have been killed for free. You are a thief and could have died a miserable death.”
The eyewitness disclosed that not even the plea from him could stop the attackers.
According to him, he pleaded with them to send him to the Police station but they refused and kept on beating him.
He said “people just kept beating him. Anyone who gets to the scene and asks what happened and is told the victim allegedly stole a phone will hit him without asking for further details”
The Police are currently investigating the matter.
