Police’s ongoing investigation into the Mankessim murder case has established that the two suspects, Michael Darko alias Nana 1 and Christopher Ekow Clarke, have murdered one other person.
This brings to two the number of people confirmed to have been gruesomely murdered by the suspects.
The second victim, Gloria Yeboah, a petty trader, from Obokrom in Kumasi, was reported missing sometime in June 2022 after she left home in her quest to travel abroad.
The suspects, according to Police investigations, lured the deceased to Accra on June 17, 2022, and took her to Mankessim under the pretext of preparing her to travel to Holland.
However, the suspects later killed the deceased and the body has subsequently been found and police have been able to locate her family who have identified her as Gloria Yeboah.
In a statement the Police indicated they are providing the necessary support to the family in these difficult times.
“The Police are also following a lead on a possible third victim who might have been murdered by the suspects.
“Investigations so far point to the fact that the suspects are involved in ritual murders. They lure their victims, sometimes under the pretext of helping them to travel abroad and then kill them,” the police said.
The police have further appealed to members of the public who have dealt with the suspects or know someone who has ever dealt with them to contact the police on 0243809991 to assist the investigation.
