My life is in danger – Lawyer for alleged killers of Major Mahama cries out.

George Bernard Shaw, one of the lawyers defending the 14 persons accused of killing Major Maxwell Adam Mahama, has expressed fear for his life after he was nearly attacked in court._

On Monday, November 14, Mr Shaw was confronted by a man said to be an uncle of Major Mahama for defending the accused persons. Amidst insults and curses, the man kept asking Mr Shaw why he would defend such persons.

The visibly angry man took issues with Mr Shaw during his final address to the jury, during which he impressed on the jurors not to convict William Baah, the Assembly Man for Denkyira Obuasi at the time Major Mahama was killed.

Counsel had told the jury that no evidence had directly or indirectly linked Baah to the lynching of Major Mahama or inciting others to lynch the military officer.
