Authorities in the Amansie West district have detained two individuals following the discovery of a body in a disused mining excavation near Abrense. The victim, 28-year-old Yaw Asamoah, disappeared after a dispute at a community gathering where he accused sex workers of theft at a local establishment.
Witnesses reported that Asamoah confronted women at K.K. Spot after discovering 1,000 cedis missing following an encounter. The confrontation escalated before his disappearance, with his remains located two days later in the abandoned pit. Samuel Yeboah, area assemblyman and relative of the deceased, requested public cooperation with investigators.
Police in Manso Nkwanta confirmed the suspects remain in custody while authorities examine statements and conduct autopsy procedures. The incident has prompted residents to request enhanced patrols addressing security concerns in the region.
