''' Leads to my topic "Mob Justice in Ghana". '''

Mob justice is when a person suspected to be a criminal is beaten by a group of people or crowd with clubs, stones, machetes or anything they can lay their hands on. In some cases the alleged criminal dies in the process due to excessive beaten or they are set on fire using old car tires and fuel.

In Ghana it is not only alleged criminals that sometimes go through mob justice. People suspected to be witches, wizards and homosexuals sometimes find themselves in such situations. Due to the lack of trust in the law enforcement system in Ghana people turn to take the law into their own hands and deal with these alleged criminals their own way.
