The suspects are currently in police custody as investigations continue. The Upper West Regional Police Command commended the public for its cooperation and urged residents to continue providing timely information to support crime prevention.
The statement was signed by ACP Peter Kamasa, Deputy Regional Police Commander, who reaffirmed the service’s commitment to ensuring safety and security across the region.
