The suspects have been identified as 26-year-old Richard Arhin and 27-year-old Eric Osei.
In a chilling development, police also discovered two bodies at separate locations—Nsokote and Appiakrom—believed to be members of the same robbery gang. The deceased were later identified by the suspects as Kofi Agyei (23) and Yaw Agyemang Aquah (22).
Confirming the arrests and related deaths, Fomena District Police Commander DSP Samson Wunyi Mumuni stated that the bodies have been deposited at the Fomena District Hospital morgue for further investigation.
Police say the arrests are part of intensified efforts to clamp down on violent crime in the area, and appealed to the public for continued cooperation in reporting suspicious activities.
