Key Suspect in Ahmed Suale’s Murder Arrested: Allegations of Photos Leaked to Politician
Daniel Owusu Koranteng, a key suspect in Ahmed Suale’s 2019 murder, is accused of leaking journalist’s photos to a politician. A high-ranking police officer allegedly seeks to influence the investigation by securing bail for Amakye, causing unrest among investigators. Amakye was arrested in Ghana after fleeing to the UK post-murder.
Reports indicate that Daniel Owusu Koranteng, also known as Akwasi Amakye, has been arrested in connection with the 2019 murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale. It is alleged that Mr. Amakye, a former colleague at Tiger Eye Private Investigations, leaked photographs of Suale to a well-known Ghanaian politician prior to the incident.
Sources from the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ghana Police Service revealed that a high-ranking officer is reportedly attempting to interfere with the ongoing investigation. This officer is alleged to be advocating for the suspect to receive police inquiry bail instead of being promptly presented to the court.
The intervention of the officer has caused considerable unrest within the police administration, as investigators strive to uphold the integrity of the investigation and resist external influences. Amakye’s recent return from the United Kingdom, from which he fled after the murder, culminated in his capture at a salon in Amasaman-Adease.
The arrest of Daniel Owusu Koranteng in connection with Ahmed Suale’s murder brings to light serious concerns regarding attempted interference in the investigation. The allegations of leaking photos to a politician and the reported pressure for bail indicate the complexities surrounding this case. The police remain steadfast in their commitment to uncover the truth and execute thorough investigations.
