Police arrest man who allegedly beheaded Okada rider at Gomoa Afransi
The Agona Swedru Divisional Police Command has apprehended the man who allegedly beheaded the Okada rider at Kwame Adwen, a village near Gomoa Afransi in the Gomoa Central District of the Central region.
The suspect, Augustine Ankomah, also an Okada rider in his 30s, was said to have attempted to sell a human head to a Togolese woman at Kwame Adwen, the same village where the murder occurred.
According to sources at Swedru Divisional Police Command, the suspect went to the woman on Saturday, December 14 to inform her that he had a human head for sale.
The Police source said the woman, in turn, informed a herbalist (name withheld for security reasons) who is also a resident of the village that Ankomah told her that he had a human head for sale.
The source said that based on the information, the herbalist gathered some youth and went to ambush the house of the Togolese and in the process, Ankomah, true to his word showed up with the head.
It said that the herbalist and the youth arrested the suspect and identified the head as Kwame Fosu who was allegedly murdered six days ago.
Ankomah and his alleged accomplices were handed over to the Police for further investigations.
The police sources said the suspect has been sent to the Winneba Police Cells.
He would be arraigned before a court today, Monday, December 16, 2024.
