A building contractor who used his vehicle to convey the Policemen who were allegedly shot at by Johnson Kombian, a businessman, has testified before an Accra Fast Track High Court.

Mr Elijah Sillin Laar, the fourth prosecution witness, led in evidence by Mrs Marina Appiah Opare, Principal State Attorney, recounted how he visited his family in Tamale and later went to the crime scene.

According to him, when he went to Nankpanduri, a soup seller informed him about the shooting incident.

Mr Laar said when he got home, he took his Toyota Hilux with registration GR 6321 R and together with four others proceeded to the crime scene.

The witness said they rescued the policemen, placed them in the bucket of his vehicle and drove them to the Baptist Medical Centre at Nalerigu.

According to him, one person was, however, declared dead when they arrived at the Centre and the two others were rushed to the theatre.

Witness said the authorities at the Centre demanded for blood hence they donated some to support the injured policemen.

Kombian is being held for killing two policemen in the Northern Region.

Kombian and his accomplices, who are on the run, were alleged to have ambushed the three policemen.

Two of the policemen Constables Prince Agyare and Owusu Frimpong, however, died, leaving Constable Osei Bonsu.

Kombian has denied the charge of conspiracy, and two counts of killing the two police officers, before a seven-member jury.

Hearing continues on June 4.
