An illegal miner whose name has been withheld by the police has been arrested at Manso Adimasa in the Manso Adubia district of the Ashanti region for suspected grave looting.
According Abdul Malik Anokye a local reporter in the area, the suspect is currently in police detention assisting the police in their investigations after he was apprehended with a human skull and other parts at the community cemetery.
“He claims it was part of their ritual performances as ordered by an unnamed Mallam in order to succeed in their galamsey activities. They were required to bring a skull and other bones of a human being”, he disclosed.
He and three other colleagues therefore decided to dig a corpse from the community cemetery at Adimasa in the Manso Adubia district in the Ashanti region but luck eluded them when they were caught and three of them manage to escape whiles he was arrested by members of the community watchdog committee.
