Three suspects have been arrested in connection with an alleged murder of a 15 year old girl, at Konongo, in the Asante Akim Central Municipality, in the Ashanti Region.

Their names were not given by the police as others were being sought for.

The body of the deceased, identified as Regina Sarfo, was found dumped in a bush at Ahenbrom, a suburb of Konongo on Thursday evening.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Godwin Ahianyo, Public Affairs Officer of the Ashanti Regional Police Command, confirmed the story.

He said experts conducted a forensic examination after which the body was conveyed to the Stewards Hospital’s mortuary.

ASP Ahianyo said the Regional Police Commander has met with the family and the Inspector General of Police has also commiserated with them on phone and assured them of the necessary police support.

Police clinical psychologists are also offering psychosocial support to the family while investigations continue, he said.
