Two men suspected in the killing of a woman at Kokoase, near Twifo Praso in the Central Region, have been remanded into police custody by the court.
The suspects, Isaac Arhin and Richard Armah, were arraigned on Tuesday, May 7, 2025, and are expected to reappear on May 21, 2025.
According to the Central North Regional Police Command, the pair are being held in connection with the murder of Tahiru Zenabu, whose lifeless body was discovered in her room on April 3, 2025.
The victim was found with a cloth tied around her neck and blood stains on her hands, indicating possible foul play.
The suspects were picked up by police on May 5, 2025, at Twifo Aboabo following a lead. Investigators say Richard Armah, a phone repairer, was traced after he used the deceased’s mobile phone to contact one of her friends, who promptly alerted the police.
During interrogation, Armah implicated Isaac Arhin as his accomplice. Police subsequently arrested Arhin, and the deceased’s phone was recovered and is now being held as evidence.
The investigation is ongoing as authorities work to establish the full circumstances surrounding the crime.
