Police declare suspect wanted over double murder near Tema Golf City

The Ghana Police Service has launched a nationwide manhunt for a suspect believed to be behind the gruesome killing of two individuals at Saki, near Tema Golf City in the Greater Accra Region.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, May 6, police identified the suspect as Prince Krah, approximately 30 years old, who is wanted in connection with the deaths of Ebenezer Kwabena Obiri, 45, and Mary Anim, 22.

The incident occurred on May 1, 2026, and has since triggered an intensive security operation across multiple regions as authorities attempt to track down the suspect.

Preliminary police investigations indicate that the suspect had been living with the deceased in a chamber-and-hall apartment prior to the incident. The victims were later discovered in their room with multiple machete wounds, suggesting a violent and sustained attack.

Police further revealed that Mr Obiri was last seen in the company of the suspect on the night of April 30, 2026—just hours before the bodies were discovered.

Authorities believe the suspect fled the scene shortly after the killings.

The Kpone Magistrate Court issued a warrant for the arrest of Prince Krah on May 4, 2026, as investigators intensified efforts to locate him.

He is described as dark in complexion, about 5.7 feet tall, and of stout build. At the time he was last seen, he was reportedly wearing a Lacoste shirt and jeans.

Security sources have indicated that the suspect is allegedly a military officer, prompting expanded investigations into military facilities.

Intelligence suggests he may be hiding within the Kakusunanka or Kamina Barracks in Tamale, leading to heightened surveillance and collaboration between security agencies.

“Information gathered so far suggests he may be within the Kakusunanka or Kamina Barracks in Tamale,” police sources noted.

As part of efforts to expedite his arrest, the Ghana Police Service has announced a reward of GH¢100,000 for credible information leading to the suspect’s capture.

The police have urged the public to assist with any useful information and report to the nearest station or contact emergency numbers 191 or 112.

“Anyone with information is urged to contact the nearest Police station or call 191 or 112,” the statement added.

The case has heightened concern in the Tema and Tamale areas as security agencies widen their search across suspected hideouts. Authorities have assured the public that all necessary measures are being taken to ensure the suspect is apprehended and brought to justice.
