Notorious illegal mining kingpin, Kwame Ato, is battling for his life at the hospital after suffering a brutal assault during a violent clash with a rival gang.
According to eyewitness accounts, the deadly confrontation turned bloody when Kwame Ato’s brother fired the first shot at a rival named Alhassan.
However, the bullet failed to penetrate Alhassan, who is said to have been spiritually fortified.
The tables quickly turned as Alhassan and his associates captured Kwame Ato.
In the ensuing assault, they sliced his head, severed some of his fingers, undressed him, and destroyed his charms. The attackers also unalived Kwame Ato’s brother during the chaos.
Emerging reports suggest the clash was an act of revenge. It has been reported that Kwame Ato and his gang had earlier attacked a rival gang member for trespassing on galamsey land under their control.
A disturbing video circulating on social media shows Kwame Ato and his men violently assaulting the rival gang member.
In the footage, police officers can be seen at the scene attempting to restore order, but the galamsey kingpin defied police instructions and continued manhandling the victim.
Witnesses claim that had it not been for the intervention of law enforcement, the rival gang member might have been unalived on the spot.
