The Bono Regional Police Command has rescued a 30-year-old victim\u00a0from\u00a0kidnapping\u00a0at\u00a0Berekum\u00a0in the region.\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0\u00a0
A statement issued and signed by Chief Inspector Thomas Akeelah, Public Relations Officer of the Bono Regional Police\u00a0administration,\u00a0said the victim, Millicent\u00a0Fosua,\u00a0had\u00a0since\u00a0been reunited with her family.\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0\u00a0
The\u00a0Police are investigating the\u00a0incident,\u00a0and no arrest has been made so far, a copy of the statement made available to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in Sunyani indicated.\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0\u00a0
It explained that on October 29, 2025, the complainant, Samuel\u00a0Amartey\u00a0Laryea, and\u00a0his\u00a0wife\u00a0(victim)\u00a0 attended a\u00a0funeral in\u00a0Kyeremasu\u00a0in the\u00a0Dormaa\u00a0Central Municipality of the region.\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0\u00a0
\u201cHowever, on November 3, the complainant received a phone call from an unknown person that he (caller) had kidnapped his wife\u00a0and therefore demanded GHC12,000 for her release\u201d, the statement explained.\u00a0\u00a0
\u00a0\u00a0
It said Laryea\u00a0sent\u00a0GHC2,000\u00a0through his mobile phone money account;\u00a0however, the kidnappers\u00a0failed to\u00a0release the victim,\u00a0and that\u00a0prompted the complainant to report the matter to the\u00a0Police.<\/p>\n

The statement said\u00a0the Regional\u00a0Police Intelligence Directorate conducted an\u00a0intelligence-led undercover operation and rescued the victim\u00a0at\u00a0Berekum.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The statement said the victim was subjected to physical abuse, verbal threats, and insults by kidnappers who also seized her mobile phone and forced her to provide her husband\u2019s mobile phone number and the PIN code to his mobile money account.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
