The Ghana Police Service have announced the arrest of two suspects in connection with the murder of a 58-year-old Lebanese national, Omar Mikati, at his residence in East Legon, Accra, on Friday, June 20, 2025.
According to a police statement, the deceased was found lying in a pool of blood at his home when a team from the Police Headquarters’ Crime Scene Management Unit (CSMU) arrived at the scene to gather forensic evidence.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the suspects made away with the victim’s Samsung mobile phone but left behind other items, including two iPhones and a GCB ATM card bearing the name Paul Twumasi Ankrah.
This clue led the police to arrest Paul Twumasi Ankrah at Samsam Medie. During interrogation, he identified his accomplice as Asiedu Henning, also known as Nana Kofi Anum.
The statement added that on July 2, the police arrested Mr. Henning in an intelligence-led operation at his hideout in Kutunse.
He later led investigators to a location where a knife believed to have been used in the crime had been discarded.
The weapon has been retrieved and is currently undergoing forensic analysis.
Both suspects were arraigned before the Adabraka District Court 1 and have been remanded into police custody.
