The Ghana Police Service has arrested four suspects in connection with the murder of the Akwamuhene of Tanoso in the Bono East Region, the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has confirmed.

The suspects are Issifu Addae (alias Akwasi Addae), Stephen Gyamfi, Augustine Arhinful, and Martha Mansah. Four other individuals have been named as persons of interest and are currently being pursued by police.

Preliminary investigations indicate that the deceased had been destooled as the Akwamuhene but had reportedly refused to accept the decision, leading to multiple litigations and disputes with the family.

The four arrested suspects are in police custody and assisting with investigations, while efforts to apprehend the remaining suspects continue.
