Police have arrested four people in connection with the murder of the Akwamuhene of Tanoso in the Bono East Region.
The suspects, identified as Issifu Addae also known as Akwasi Addae, Stephen Gyamfi, Augustine Arhinful and Martha Mansah, are in custody assisting with investigations. Police say four other people have been named as persons of interest and are currently being pursued.
Preliminary investigations suggest the late chief had been destooled as the Akwamuhene but reportedly rejected the decision.
He is said to have engaged his family in a series of disputes and legal battles over the matter before his death.
Police say efforts have been intensified to arrest the remaining suspects so they can face justice.
