The Kibi Divisional Police Command is now on the lookout for Osei Michael, also known as Emeka, who is suspected of stabbing his 18-year-old girlfriend, Abigail Asare, many times in Akyem Nsutam, which is located in the Fanteakwa South District of the Eastern Region.

The incident occurred in Emeka’s barbershop after a brief quarrel erupted when Abigail visited him after being told by her school to come home for a short vacation.

The motivation for the crime is unknown, however, sources claim Emeka accused Abigail of having an affair with another guy.

Emeka then locked the injured girl inside the business and departed, leaving her in severe condition.

Passers-by heard her screams and called the Nsutam police, who stormed inside the business and discovered Abigail’s lifeless body in a pool of blood.

The victim’s family members, along by the police, attended the murder scene and subsequently brought Abigail’s body to the Accra Police Hospital for an autopsy.

Meanwhile, officials have launched a search operation to locate the suspect, who is said to be hiding in the Suhum area.

Three people have been detained in connection with violent attacks on the Savannah Region’s Mempeasem and Lukula villages by opposing factions in land and chieftaincy issues.

The three suspects, Razak Sulemana, Musah Shanun, and Karim Abdul Rafiuw, were detained with gunshot wounds.

According to authorities, a search of them yielded one (1) pump action gun, two (2) single barrel weapons, one long knife, 80 live cartridges, and several talismans and cowries.

Meanwhile, a gang of young men in Daboya has attacked the Daboya Police Station.

Police have detained a 40-year-old man accused of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl at Anaji Queen of Peace near Takoradi.

The man, whose name was only revealed as Thomas and who worked as a mason, allegedly kept the small innocent girl in his chamber for six days while her parents looked for her.

According to accounts, the guy would lock the small girl in his room while he was away at work and let her out when he returned.

Confidence Fiadzo, the victim’s father, praised the police for their prompt intervention in apprehending the culprit in an interview with DAILY GUIDE.

He stated that he used to live in Mpatado with his children, including the 10-year-old daughter, and that they just relocated to the Anaji area.

He claimed that on Saturday, May 6, 2023, his 10-year-old daughter went to obtain water from a well at Anaji Queen of Peace, which is about a 10-minute walk from their new home and did not return.

He mentioned that when he realised his young daughter had not returned, he urged her older brothers to go look for her, but they were unable to locate her.

“They searched the entire area, including the well and all unfinished buildings, but they couldn’t find my daughter,” he added.

He then stated that he reported the case to the police, made several radio announcements, and posted her photo on social media.

According to Mr Fiadzo, a female neighbour of the suspect afterwards saw the little girl come out of the man’s room.

Because the man did not have a wife or children, the neighbour grew suspicious when she saw the small girl come out of his room. As a result, she reported the incident to the Anaji police.

The police arrived swiftly, rescued the girl, apprehended the culprit, and informed the girl’s father.

They later directed the father to take her daughter to the hospital for a checkup, where physicians confirmed that the suspect had sexually abused the child.

The suspect is presently supporting the investigation at the Kwesimintsim Police Station.
