Kasoa: Two teenagers arrested over alleged ritual murder of 10-year-old

Two persons, an 18-year-old and a 19-year-old are in the custody of the Kasoa Divisional Police Command for allegedly killing a 10-year-old boy for money rituals at Lamptey Mills, a suburb of Kasoa.

According to sources the suspects lured the deceased, only known as Ishmael by his peers, into an uncompleted building and hit him with an object, killing him instantly.

There are claims that a fetish priest in the Volta Region told the two suspects to bring human parts for rituals, hence the action of the pair.

The mother of the boy, Hajia Maame told Citi News that she is shocked by the news of her son’s demise.

The suspects are currently assisting in investigations.

Meanwhile, the Kasoa Divisional Police Command has so far not commented officially on the incident or the arrests.
