Reports have emerged that all the relevant documents and evidence in the murder case of Wyllbee have been forwarded to the Attorney General's Office for further instructions.
Following the latest trial on August 27, 2024, at the Akropong District Court, the case has been forwarded to the Attorney General's office, and proceedings have been adjourned to September 30, 2024.
It was also disclosed that the case might be transferred from the district court to a higher court, depending on the Attorney General's input.
The family who spoke exclusively to the media is positive that the case will yield a positive income.
Wyllbee's mother also expressed her frustration and anger at seeing her son's alleged killers in court, and she remains dependent on God for justice at the right time.
Background:
Reports indicated that Wyllbee was killed in Abuakwa-Tanoso, Ashanti Region, while staying overnight at Nana Yaa Nyarko’s residence, a property reportedly owned by her 'abroad-based' husband’s family, who were unaware of Wyllbee’s presence.
According to initial accounts, on July 5, 2024, Wyllbee was seen urinating in the compound and was confronted by residents who suspected him of theft.
Wyllbee allegedly claimed he was visiting Nana Yaa, but she purportedly denied knowing him, to protect her marriage from her in-laws.
This denial led to suspicion and accusations of theft among the neighbors, culminating in Wyllbee being lynched. Reports also mention that Wyllbee's phone was destroyed with a stone during the incident.
