Three suspects have been arrested by police for stealing a baby in Kasoa in the Central Region. The suspects feigned the death of the baby and took her to Ablekuma in the Greater Accra Region. The suspects, Magdalene Nana Adwoa Boafo, 28, Faustina Binney, 32, and Eunice Koomson, a 36-year-old teacher at Ebenezer High Academy, a private basic school in Ofaakor, Kasoa, are currently in the grips of the Kasoa Domestic Violence and Victims Support Unit, assisting in investigations.
According to information gathered by our correspondent, Nana Adwoa Boafo, regarded as the prime suspect, approached the mother of the baby, who sold water in traffic at Ofaakor in the Kasoa municipality during her eighth month of pregnancy and offered to assist her financially. She later introduced her to the other two suspects, Eunice and Faustina, who pretended to be offering genuine support. In order to cover up their intentions, the suspects relocated the mother from Ofaakor-Jei River, where she lived, and rented an apartment for her at Lamptey, a suburb of Adam Nana, also in Kasoa, and continued to offer little forms of support until she delivered at the Kasoa Polyclinic on July 10, 2024.

But things got twisted just after the mother, 29-year-old Abigail Addison, and the baby, who was in a healthy condition, were discharged. The three suspects introduced another woman to Abigail, claiming that she was a medical staff member at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra and that it was recommended for the toddler to be taken there for treatment as she had some infections, a prey the new mother fell into. However, the three suspects returned to the victim two days later and, amidst uncontrollable weeping, announced to the mother that her baby had died.
