The Police had information\n that the suspect was hiding in an uncompleted building at a spot \nbetween Nkroful and Kansawurodo, and indeed he was located and \nrearrested. Whiles the police was bringing him, the residents wanted to \nlynch the suspect but we called for re-enforcement and managed to take \nhim to the station\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.modernghana.com\/thumb\/XGltYWdlc1xjb250ZW50XDE0MjAxOTEwNjA1X2g0MW8yczZmZXlfd2VzdGVybnJlZ2lvbmFscG9saWNlcHJvb2xpdmlhLmpwZ3w3NzB8MS80LzIwMTk=.jpg\" alt=\"14201910605 h41o2s6fey westernregionalpoliceproolivia\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Western Regional Police PRO, DSP Olivia Adiku<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On\n the progress made in locating the whereabouts of the kidnapped girls, \nDSP Olivia Adiku, Oaid: \u201cwhen the suspect was interrogated, he mentioned\n that he was working with one John in Accra, so the command is escorting\n him to Accra to help locate the said John and the victims\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \n28-year-old suspected kidnapper&#8217;s re-arrest comes after the Takoradi \nCentral Police Command in line with police procedures charged police \npersonnel who were on duty on the day of escape to produce the escapee \nwithin ten days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The officers according to the PRO, will still be interrogated although they themselves recaptured the suspect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DSP\n Adiku said \u201c when you are on duty and somebody escapes, you are given \nten days to search and recapture the suspect. The suspect has been \nrecaptured, but they are still looking into it, thus the role they \nplayed. If it is found out that indeed they didn&#8217;t play any role, they \ncan still be charged with negligence on duty that resulted in the \nsuspect\u2019s escape. So though the suspects have been recaptured, the \nofficers are still not free\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Nana Adjoa Quayson, whose 18-year-old sister, Ruth Quayson is a victim of the Kidnapper in a reaction told <strong>Citi News<\/strong> that she is happy about the rearrest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She added that \u201call we want right now is for our sister and the other girls to be brought back to us\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.citinewsroom.com\">Citinewsroom.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Samuel Udoetuk Wills, a suspected Nigerian kidnapper who broke cell last Sunday from the Takoradi Central Police Command has been rearrested this dawn by three <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2019\/01\/04\/suspected-nigerian-kidnapper-rearrested\/\" title=\"Suspected Nigerian Kidnapper Rearrested\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1715,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[15,25],"tags":[125],"class_list":["post-1714","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-metro-news","category-western-region","tag-ghana-police"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 -
