Victims of April 2000 student killings demand justice and full reparations

Victims and families affected by the April 10–11 student killings have renewed calls for justice and full reparations, more than two decades after the incident.

In a statement issued on 6 April 2026, survivors and concerned citizens said many victims are still waiting for compensation despite findings from both the Lartey Commission and the Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission.

Both bodies established responsibility for the killings and recommended prosecutions, compensation, and institutional reforms.

However, the group said implementation has been slow, leaving many victims “unpaid or only partially compensated.”
