The Ghana Police Service says it has completed investigations into the case of Marku Kuami, a house help accused of murdering her madam in the Kumasi suburb of Ayeduase in the Ashanti region.
The suspect made a second appearance before the Asokwa District Court on Wednesday (17 January).
An officer who held brief for police prosecutor Inspector O.N Tetteh told the court that a duplicate docket had been sent to the Attorney-Generals’ office for advice and prayed the court to adjourn the case.
The court presided over by His Honour Kwaku Baah Frimpong, a Relieving Judge granted the request, remanded the suspect into police custody and adjourned the case to 2 February 2024.
Kuami, 22, was arrested, charged and arraigned for killing her mistress, Margaret Oppong on 22 December, last year. She is reported to have made away with an unspecified amount of money after committing the crime.
The 83-year-old until her death was domiciled in the US. Her family says they are disturbed over the unfortunate incident and have vowed to pursue the case in the interest of justice.
“An autopsy report is ready”, a family member who gave her name as Joyce Dabo told Asaase News. “And so, this will pave the way for her to be buried and the final funeral rites have been slated for 25th May”.
“The family remains unsettled by this terrible loss, and we will continue to seek justice for our late mother”, she added.
