A/R: Three arrested for robbery and murder of momo vendors

The Ashanti Regional Police Command has arrested three suspects in connection with the robbery and murder of two mobile money vendors in the region.
The suspects—Charles Kwame Danso (alias Kwame Charles/Miami), 23; Phillip Fordjour, 29; and Samuel Addae Mensah, 42—were apprehended on March 21, 2025, in the Pankrono and Atimatim areas.
The arrests follow two separate incidents:
On Thursday, February 13, 2025, Patricia Nimako, a mobile money vendor, was robbed and murdered in Krofrom.
On Monday, March 10, 2025, Gideon Owusu Sarong (alias Junior) was robbed and killed in Kwadaso.
During a press briefing, the Ashanti Regional Police Commander, DCOP Emmanuel Teye-Cudjoe, confirmed that the suspects are in custody awaiting prosecution.
He also revealed that a fourth suspect, Martin Amoah (alias Augustine Amoah/Baba Macho), is on the run.
Authorities believe Amoah may be hiding in Kumasi, Dunkwa-on-Offin, Diaso (near Dunkwa-on-Offin) in the Central Region, or Accra.
DCOP Teye-Cudjoe urged the public to provide any information that could lead to the arrest of the fugitive, assuring that the police remain committed to ensuring justice is served.
