Thirty-eight-year-old Vida Golomesio has been arrested with a baby boy at Karaga in the Northern Region.

Northern Regional Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Ebenezer Tetteh, who confirmed the arrest to starrfmonline.com,, disclosed that the identity of the baby had been established as the one belonging to 27-year-old Limah Addo, who was reported missing.

The baby boy was delivered last weekend at the Tamale West Hospital and mysteriously went missing after being discharged from the facility.

According to ASP Tetteh, the suspect could not explain to residents who first arrested her close to a farming community in the area, how she came by the infant in her possession.

She was subsequently whisked to the Karaga chief's palace before being handed over to the police.

The Karaga district police took custody of the baby, who is in the care of nurses at the Karaga District Hospital after several days in captivity.

The police spokesperson disclosed that the suspect would later today be transferred to the regional office of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU) and charged for the offence.
