Speaking to Ghana News Agency (GNA) at Atieku on Wednesday, Chief Inspector Joseph Agbedor of Ateiku Police said at dawn on Tuesday one Yaw Ahema heard a gunshot in a nearby house and this attracted him to find out what was happening.
On reaching the house, he saw both Fati and Osae lying in a pool of blood.
