The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service has picked up two friends of the barber who allegedly murdered his girlfriend, a student of Akyem Nsutam Senior High School in Fanteakwa South district in the Eastern Region.
The barber known as Osei Michael popularly known as Emeka on Thursday, June 1, 2023, allegedly stabbed his 18-year-old girlfriend, Abigail Asare to death for cheating on him.

The lifeless body of the deceased was later found in a pool of blood in the barbering saloon, and the suspect has gone into hiding.
