Isaac Kissi Adjei, popularly known as Kofi Black, and Courage Teiko, alias Timmy, are the two adults in the group.
Early investigations, according to a police statement, suggest that one of the minors staged the pretend kidnapping in order to demand money from his parents so that he could take a trip overseas. Together, the group asked that the victim’s parents pay a ransom of GH₵340,000.00, or three hundred and forty thousand Ghanaian cedis.
Afterwards, it was found that the children and the two adults had succeeded in obtaining GH₵20,000.00 from the ransom that was demanded.
In accordance with established procedure, the teens’ identities have been kept secret and their parents and guardians have been formally notified while additional inquiry is presently in progress.
