The Ashanti Regional Police Command has arrested three individuals in connection with the robbery and murder of two mobile money vendors in the region.
The suspects, identified as Charles Kwame Danso, also known as Kwame Charles or Miami, aged 23, Phillip Fordjour, 29, and Samuel Addae Mensah, 42, were apprehended on March 21, 2025, during police operations in the Pankrono and Atimatim areas.
Their arrests follow two separate incidents. On February 13, 2025, a mobile money vendor, Patricia Nimako, was attacked, robbed, and murdered in Krofrom.
A similar attack occurred on March 10, 2025, when another vendor, Gideon Owusu Sarong, also known as Junior, was robbed and killed in Kwadaso.
Addressing the media, Ashanti Regional Police Commander, DCOP Emmanuel Teye-Cudjoe, confirmed that the suspects are currently in custody and will be prosecuted.
He further revealed that a fourth suspect, Martin Amoah, also known as Augustine Amoah or Baba Macho, is still on the run.
Investigators believe Amoah may be hiding in Kumasi, Dunkwa-on-Offin, Diaso in the Central Region, or Accra. The police have appealed to the public for any information that could lead to his arrest, assuring that efforts are ongoing to ensure justice for the victims.
