  "account": "A 36-year-old man, Isaac Sekyi, and a 45-year-old man, Reindolf Sekeni, have been ordered to remain in prison custody by the Dambai Magistrate Court, following their alleged participation in the killing of a 39-year-old woman, Madam Rejoice Sena Akpaku. The men appeared in court on November 12, and will return to face charges on December 2, 2026. According to a police statement, Madam Akpaku's body was found in a bush near Adumadum in the Krachi East Municipality of the Oti Region. Madam Akpaku had traveled to Dormabin on October 28, 2026, to collect a sum of GH¢19,000 owed to her by Sekyi, but never returned. Police investigations subsequently led to the arrest of Sekyi on November 10, 2026. His girlfriend, Madam Seraphine Aku Koumah, revealed that Sekyi had given her his Infinix Smart 8 mobile phone before handing it over to his brother, Frank Sekyi. The phone was found to have been altered, with the SIM card removed. A mobile phone technician, Mr Mohammed Ali, was also apprehended to aid in the investigation. On November 11, 2026, Sekyi reportedly confessed to the murder, implicating his brother Sekeni. The body was discovered after Sekyi guided the police to its location, and a stick believed to have been used was collected as evidence. Three additional individuals arrested in connection with the case have been granted police enquiry bail. The Ghana Police Service has promised to conduct the investigation in a professional manner, adhering to due process.",
