A motorbike crash at Assin Fosu in the Central Region has claimed the life of an Immigration Officer and left a Police Officer with serious injuries.
The deceased, identified as Amoakoh, popularly known as Ahuoden, was reportedly riding as a pillion on the motorbike when it crashed.
The incident occurred as the two were travelling from the Finest Pup area towards the Assin Fosu Main Lorry Station.
