One of the alleged killers of  investigative journalist, Ahmed Suale, has been grabbed by the police.

Abdul Rashid Meizongo, 29, is currently in custody as investigation continues.

The Police had claimed that the suspect attempted bribing a Police Officer so the police stops chasing him.

“This morning, we had information that the suspect called a Policeman that he has got information that the Accra Regional Police Command is looking for him in connection with Suale’s death and that he wants the policeman to assist him so the Accra Regional Police will stop pursuing him.

“He asked the Police to meet him at West Hills Mall so he will give some amount of money to give to the police officers who are looking for him. So we asked our men to arrange the policeman he will call. He went and laid ambush at West Hills Mall and when he came we got him arrested. We brought him to Accra Regional Police headquarters and now we have transferred him to Police CID headquarters because that is where they are investigating that murder case,” DCOP Peprah narrated.

The latest arrest brings to two, the number of suspects who have been arrested by the police over the killing.
