‘Missing’ St. Louis JHS girls were with their boyfriends

The Ashanti Regional Police Command has asked the public to disregard claims of kidnapping of two girls of St. Louis Junior High School.

The command said the two girls who could not be traced by their parents were discovered to be spending time with their boyfriends.

It emerged over the weekend that the police had begun a search for the two girls who were alleged to have been kidnapped.

One of the girls reportedly told her brother via phone that she had been kidnapped with others by an unidentified person, leading her parents to file a formal police complaint.

But the police in a statement on Monday, February 8, 2021, said based on intelligence, it proceeded to locate the girls at Tafo-Ahenbronum in the absence of their boyfriends.

“Investigation revealed that the girls, on Friday 5th February 2021, left home for school and have since not returned home, apparently they went to visit their boyfriends, Clement Coleman and Nana Kwame at Tafo-Ahenbronum and that they had been staying at that address with their friends since Friday, 5th February 2021.”

The Police said the girls are assisting them in investigations and also to apprehend the boys.
