A 40-year-old woman, Natasha Bawah has been arrested by the police for allegedly murdering her boyfriend, Eddie Murphy Sulleymana.
Eddie Murphy Sulleymana (a Canadian citizen who was on vacation in Ghana), is believed to have met Natasha in September 2014 when the two became lovers and resided in Sowutuom.
[contextly_sidebar id=”n8EeZtM3CisKocgQ9ZhFCDlQHDKXkHnI”]The suspect led the victim to Sandema in the Upper West region for cattle business, a new trade the suspect had discovered. Since then, nothing has been heard of Sulleymana.
Upon interrogation by the family of Sulleymana, Natasha revealed that he had been involved in a fatal accident and did not want any family member to visit him.
After sometime, her phone went off and nothing was heard of the victim or the suspect.
Police investigations however revealed that Eddie Murphy Sulleymana had not returned to Canada and his passport and other relevant travelling documents were with his friend, Mallam Mumuni.
The police on August 1 traced and arrested Natasha in her hideout in Buokom in Kumasi.
Upon interrogation, she told the police Sulleymana had died at Tumu Government Hospital whilst receiving treatment from a fatal accident on the Tumu stretch.
She claims the deceased was buried on 24th January 2015, per Islamic customs at a Muslim cemetery in Tumu.
But the police say there were no records of any death involving the deceased when the Tumu Government Hospital and the Muslim community were contacted.
The case is still under thorough investigations and the suspect is expected to be arraigned before court.
