The late Mahama who was with the 5 Battalion of Infantry was lynched while he was on his early morning jogging. He was initially reported to have been mistaken for an armed robber.

But it was later revealed that the deceased who was leading a team of soldiers to protect a mining site in the area had been targeted by illegal miners (galamsey people) whose activities had been affected by the presence of the soldiers.
