Police arrest four suspects in connection with Tanoso chief’s murder

Police have arrested four individuals in connection with the murder of the Akwamuhene of Tanoso in the Bono East Region.

Chief Inspector Brigitte Babanawo confirmed the arrests.

“We have arrested four suspects in connection with the murder of the Akwamuhene of Tanoso.

“The suspects include Issifu Addae, also known as Akwasi Addae; Stephen Gyamfi; Augustine Arhinful; and Martha Mansah,” she said.

Inspector Babanawo added that four other individuals have been named as persons of interest and are currently being pursued by police.

“Our preliminary investigations indicate that the deceased was destooled as the Akwamuhene of Tanoso, but he reportedly rejected the decision and engaged the family in multiple litigations and disputes,” she explained.

The arrested suspects are currently in police custody assisting with ongoing investigations.

“Meanwhile, police have intensified efforts to track down the remaining suspects to face the full rigours of the law,” Chief Inspector Babanawo emphasized.
