After the dastardly act, the suspect who is said to be mentally challenged paraded the town with the severed head and hands following which he was arrested by the youth of the town who called the police.

Eben Salifu, a resident, who spoke to Adom News’ Kofi Adjei said the timely intervention of the police saved the suspect from being lynched by the angry residents.
