A young lady has been
arrested by the police for allegedly absconding with a six-month old baby left
in her care. At about 10 a.m on Sunday, January 13, 2019, the mother of the
baby, Abena Kubilla, left her six-month-old baby boy in the care of 20-year-old
Patience Anane at Kwame Antwi Lorry Station, Kumasi, Ghana to go and wash the
baby’s clothes.
When she returned, the
baby, together with Patience, was nowhere to be found. Consequently, she lodged
a complaint with the Suame District Police.
Assistant Superintendent of
Police (ASP) Mr Godwin Ahianyo told the Daily Graphic that following the theft
and the subsequent complaint, the police initiated investigations into the
issue and at about 8 p.m.on Thursday, January 17, 2019, “two young men arrested
the suspect at Bantama, a suburb of Kwame Danso, in the Brong Ahafo Region,
together with the baby, and handed her over to the Police at Kwame Danso.”
According to him, the
police at Kwame Danso also handed over the suspect, together with the baby, to
the Suame District police command.
He said the baby had since
been handed over to the mother while the alleged baby thief, Patience Anane,
was in the custody of the police pending further investigation and prosecution.
