Personnel from the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service have picked up two friends of Michael Osei, the barber who allegedly murdered his 18-year-old girlfriend at Akyem Nsutam near Bunso Junction in the Eastern Region.
Michael Osei who is popularly known as Emeka on Thursday allegedly stabbed his 18-year-old girlfriend, Abigail Asare, a second-year General Arts student of the Nsutam Senior High Technical School in the Fanteakwa South District of the Eastern Region who had come to visit him after the management of her school asked all students to go home on a short break.
Information gathered revealed that some friends of Michael were picked up by the police on Sunday to help assist them with their investigations to enable the police to apprehend Emeka who has since been on the run after the incident.
The Kyebi Divisional Police who have been on a manhunt for the suspect Emeka has vowed not to leave any stone unturned in bringing the suspect to book.
Abigail’s lifeless body was found at Osei’s barber shop at Nsutam last Thursday, June 1, 2023.
Sources claim Abigail left school after vacation and decided to visit Osei before going home.
Osei allegedly accused Abigail of cheating on him and stabbed her multiple times leading to her death, according to preliminary information gathered by the police at Nsutam supported by officers from the Kyebi Divisional Police Command.
Abigail’s body has been deposited at the Kyebi Government Hospital morgue for autopsy.
