Two suspects, Abubakar Altine and Eric Tetty Adejetey, have been arrested by the Madina Divisional Police Command in connection with an alleged plot to kill a Susu collector named Esther Dankwa. The arrest took place on September 4, 2026, following a police operation in the Botwe Old Town area. The police claim that the suspects were in the midst of carrying out the attack when they were apprehended.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the plot may have been the result of a debt dispute, with Altine allegedly owing Dankwa money and subsequently conspiring with Adejetey to arrange for her murder. The details of the alleged debt and the nature of the planned attack are under investigation. Both suspects appeared before the Adenta Magistrate Court on September 7, with their pleas not being taken, and were remanded into police custody.
They are scheduled to appear in court again on September 22, 2026. The police investigation is ongoing, and further updates will be provided as they become available. This report is based on information provided by Chief Superintendent Juliana Obeng, Head of Public Affairs for the Accra Region.
