Fl. Lt. Jerry John Rawlings, former President of the Republic of Ghana, has said he agreed with the reported assertion by the immediate past Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, Odoi Sykes (NPP) that some big men were behind the murder of women that dogged the nation.

President Rawlings, therefore, called on the big powers to use the most sophisticated means at their disposal to help Ghana get to the bottom of this heinous crime.

The former President is reported to have made the call when the outgoing U.S. Ambassador, Ms. Kathryn Dee Robinson, paid a farewell call on him at his Ridge Office in Accra last Monday.

According to him, arresting insane people in the streets as perpetrators of these dastardly acts does not solve the riddle of those responsible for the murder of the women. He added that democracy would be meaningless if we cannot protect life and property.
