2 Caged Over Robbery, Murder

The two suspects

 

TWO MALE suspects are in the firm grips of the Ashanti South Regional Police Command for allegedly robbing and murdering a 20-year-old man.

Suspects Solomon Opoku and Collins Aboagye, reportedly, killed one Kofi Mensah, at Tweapease-Aboo in the Ashanti Region and stole his Haojin motorbike.

The heartbreaking incident was said to have happened on October 6, 2025, and reported to Bediem District Police Command by an assemblyman.

After committing the heinous crime, the two suspects managed to elude arrest for some days until Solomon Opoku was apprehended on October 10, 2025.

According to reports, Opoku was in the process of selling the deceased’s stolen Haojin motorbike at the Council Quarters in Obuasi when police finally grabbed him.

After interrogation and further investigations, the police managed to arrest second suspect, Aboagye at Kokotesua, near Obuasi, to also assist in investigations.

According to police sources, who have demanded anonymity, the two suspects have since confessed to committing the heinous crime.

Meanwhile, it looks likely that the two suspects, who are still in police custody, would be sent to court today, Monday, October 13, 2025 on charges of robbery and murder.
