The Central Regional Police Command has arrested a suspect in connection with the murder of a Senior Lecturer from the University of Education, Winneba.
The suspect, Joshua Karry Arthur, was picked up from the lecturer’s residence at Essuokyir in the Central Region on Thursday, May 22, 2025.
The arrest follows a report filed by the deceased’s colleagues a day earlier, after repeated efforts to reach him failed.
Police officers responding to the report visited his home, where they found and arrested the suspect.
A chilling discovery followed the arrest. Officers noticed blood stains in the house, which they traced to a nearby heap of sand roughly 23 metres away.
Upon removing the sand, they uncovered a buried body believed to be that of the missing lecturer.
The body has since been retrieved and deposited at the morgue for preservation and an autopsy.
Items recovered from the suspect include two Samsung phones, a laptop, a 50-inch television, and a car key to a Toyota Fortuner—all confirmed to belong to the deceased.
The suspect is currently in police custody, assisting with investigations and is expected to be arraigned before court.
The police say investigations are ongoing and have assured the public of their commitment to ensuring justice is served.
