The Tafo-Pankrono Divisional Police Command is investigating the Head Pastor of the Light Salvation Ministry International at Fawoade in the Kwabre East Municipality of the Ashanti Region in connection with the death of two minors.
According to a Citi news report, the two children, two-year-old Yiedie Boadu and a four-year-old whose name has been given only as Emmanuel, were found dead after they were allegedly locked up in the pastor’s vehicle on Easter Sunday.
The victims were said to have been found in the boot of a KIA four-wheel drive with registration number ER-201-13, which belongs to the head pastor of Light Salvation Ministry International, Prophet Evans Oppong.
The children reportedly died on arrival at the Mamponteng Government Hospital after they were retrieved from the vehicle.
The father of one of the deceased, Eric Boakye has appealed to the police to thoroughly investigate the matter to establish circumstances that led to the death of the minors.
The bodies of the two minors have since been deposited at the Mount Zion morgue awaiting autopsy.
