Accra, May 9, GNA – The Central North Regional Police Command has arrested two suspects in connection with the murder of a female adult, Zenabu Tahiru, at Kokoase, a suburb of Twifo Praso in the Central Region.
Zenabu was found dead in her room on April 3, 2025, with a cloth tied around her neck and blood stains on her hands.
A press release issued by the Police Public Affairs Directorate and copied the Ghana News Agency on Thursday said the suspects, identified as Isaac Arhin and Richard Armah, were arrested on May 5 at Twifo Aboabo.
Preliminary investigations established that Armah, a mobile phone repairer and spinner, residing at Twifo Aboabo, was arrested when he used the deceased’s mobile phone to call a friend of the deceased. The friend then reported the matter to the police.
“Upon interrogation, Armah mentioned suspect Arhin as his accomplice and he was also subsequently arrested,” the release said.
The mobile phone has since been retrieved and is in the custody of the police, it said.
The two suspects were arraigned on May 7 and were remanded into police custody to re-appear on May 21, 2025.
