Typically, when someone dies under mysterious circumstances, the police launch an investigation to ascertain if it was a murder or accidental. But what happens when a person dies under questionable circumstances while in police detention?
For the documentary Death in Detention: Suspected Killings in Ghana's Police Custody, Joojo Cobbinah and Edmund Boateng spoke with families of a number of people who died while in police custody. The police account of their deaths raised more questions than answers for the families who are demanding justice for their relatives.
In this episode of the podcast, we sit with Joojo and Edmund to find out what motivated them to work on this story, the challenges they encountered while working on the documentary, and ask what next in terms of accountability as the Police are yet to respond to a right to information request sent to them by the Fourth Estate.
