The Ashanti Regional Security Council (REGSEC) has reviewed the curfew it imposed on the troubled Tafo township, a suburb in the Kumasi Metropolis of the Ashanti Region.
RECSEC placed a dusk to dawn curfew on Tafo last Wednesday following some clashes between the Muslim community in the area and the traditional authorities over a piece of cemetery land.
The security council on Friday reduced the curfew hours to span between 8pm-4am.
The clashes led to the death of 25 year old Aminu Suleman while scores of residents were wounded and property destroyed.
Already, some 40 persons have been arrested and screened in connection with the incident.
The attack extended to the destruction of property in churches and a mosque.
