Inspector Ahmed Twumasi was arrested on Sunday after he reportedly shot the victim believed to be his girlfriend five times on Thursday, April 20.
In a press release, the police indicated that “the suspect, who has been on the run since the incident, was arrested at Sekyere, near Effiduase in the Ashanti region as a result of a special police operation, which was launched following the shooting incident.”
“The suspect is currently in police custody and will be put before the court to face justice,” they noted.
