A 34-year-old gym instructor popularly known as ‘Little’ has been shot dead in his room at Tantra Hill in Accra Thursday dawn.
A married woman who was allegedly with him during the attack was not harmed by the unknown assailants who were on a motorbike.
Associates of the deceased say he had been warned over the constant visits by the married woman who sometimes sleeps over his place.
The suspects did not take anything from the room neither did they rob anyone in the 9-room compound House.
Police in Accra have commenced investigation into the murder.
