Capt. Mahama lynching: 12-year old arrested

Also, seven persons linked to the death of the young military officer have been arrested in the region including the woman who was seen in the video torching his body.

“Just some few hours ago I had confirmation that a twelve year old boy has been arrested at Manso Nkwanta again in connection with the murder of Captain Mahama. So we are going to add him to the seven that we have and hand them over to the Central Regional Police Command to continue with the interrogation,” the Public Relations Officer of the Ashanti Regional Police Command, ASP Juliana Obeng, said.

So far, 23 people have been arrested and will be screened and processed for court on Monday.

Meanwhile, the family of the slain soldier say they plan to hold three funerals for him.
