(VIDEO: Ghanaian demonstrators)
A 34-year-old Ghanaian met his untimely death after falling from the seventh floor of a building in the Southeastern suburb of Amsterdam in The Netherlands.
The incident which occurred on Thursday 4th of October was as a result of a police raid ostensibly to arrest illegal migrants.
The police and sections of the Dutch press reported that the victim in an attempt to escape the raid ‘jumped’ from the seventh floor.
However witnesses claim that the man fell after a short scuffle with the police.
The Justice department that is leading investigations into the circumstances has issued an interim report stating that there was no physical contact between the police and the victim.
Ghanaians and sympathizers are holding a march today to protest against the police action.
The Dutch police made news last June when they invaded a popular caf? patronized by Africans and arrested over 100 illegal migrants. Among those arrested was famous Nigerian actor/comedian Nkem Owoh.
