They are accused of taking part in the tragic killing of Captain Maxwell Adam Mahama at Diaso, a town near Denkyira-Obuasi.
Confirming the arrest to Citi News, the Central Regional Minister, Kwamena Duncan, said police acted on some leads after investigations in the town on Tuesday.

In the meantime, investigations are continuing as the police look to build a case to unravel the murder of the Captain.
