Accra, Dec. 29, GNA – Two persons are assisting the Greater Accra Regional Police Command in investigations into an alleged arson case at Oyarifa Anointed Down.
Jennifer Mae Tomlinson, a Canadian, and her Ghanaian boyfriend, Mohammed Issah, were arrested in connection with causing unlawful damage to an apartment.
A statement released by Chief Inspector Brigitte Babanawo, Public Relations Officer of the Criminal Investigation Department, and shared with the Ghana News Agency, indicated that Tomlinson and Issah, were arrested on December 25, 2025, and December 23, 2025, respectively, after investigations linked them to an arson incident at their apartment.
“Preliminary investigations suggest that the suspects, who were tenants occupying the apartment, deliberately set the property ablaze on December 23, 2025, completely destroying it without any apparent provocation.”
The release said Issah was arrested by the Ayi Mensah Abokobi Police on the same day the incident occurred, while Tomlinson went into hiding and was later arrested from her hideout on December 25, 2025.
Both suspects are in police custody assisting investigations and will be put before court to face charges in accordance with the law.
