Civil Society Group, Centre for Victims Ghana has called for further particulars from the Police on the result of the DNA test conducted.
This is because the Police briefing failed to address certain pertinent issues about the death of the ‘four missing Takoradi girls’.
Executive Director of the group, Felix Yaaba, in an interview on GBC’s current affairs programme, ‘Behind The News’, said further clarification, will help calm tempers especially on the side of the girls’ family.
Mr Yaaba urged President Akufo-Addo, to stamp his authority on dealing with security matters in the country, adding that the growing insecurity, has led to issues culminating in recent kidnappings.
The Ghana Police Service confirmed that the four missing girls in the Western regional capital Takoradi are dead. Acting IGP, James Oppong Boanuh told journalists in Accra that the results of the DNA test on the remains retrieved in Takoradi have been relayed to the families along with condolences.
The girls Priscilla Blessing Bentum, 21, Priscilla Mantebea Koranchie, 18, RuthLove Quayson 18, and Ruth Abeka were victims of a kidnapping syndicate traced to Nigeria.Two of the suspected kidnappers are currently in police custody in Ghana while the fourth suspect who was arrested in Nigeria is still awaiting extradition.
