The Police have arrested suspect Seidu Musah alias Gaswan in connection with the attack on the coach of Nsoatreman FC, Maxwell Konadu.
“The suspect, together with one other person, currently on the run, attacked the coach during a football game, yesterday, 19th November 2023, at the Sunyani Coronation Park,” the Ghana Police Service said.
According to the Police, suspect Seidu Musah is currently in Police custody assisting the investigation while efforts are still ongoing to get the other suspect arrested to face justice.
“We will surely get him,” the Police assured in a statement.
In a matchday 11 clash in the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League at the Sunyani Coronation Park which ended in a scoreless draw, Konadu was reportedly beaten leaving him in the Sunyani Teaching Hospital where he has been receiving treatment.
In response to the disturbing events, the Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association swiftly imposed a temporary ban on Bofoakwa Tano FC from using the Sunyani Coronation Park as its home venue.
