Police in Ghana's Northern Region have opened a murder investigation into the deaths of three children discovered in the trunk of a vehicle at Koblimahagu Zoo. Dauda Abdul Aziz, 3, Saani Alsharaf, 5, and Dauda Fadilan, 7, were found dead on Monday morning after reportedly going missing on Sunday while attending Islamic classes. Initial autopsy results suggest their deaths were not due to natural causes, but a toxicological examination is pending to determine the exact circumstances.
The children's bodies were found in a black Hyundai Tucson registration AS 1770-14, which had been stuck in mud with unlocked doors. The vehicle's owner, a Ghana Immigration Service member, has been arrested and brought to Accra to help with the investigation. Police have secured the vehicle for forensic examination and are seeking the assistance of homicide investigators and intelligence officers to uncover the truth behind the tragedy.
