The convict was arrested on May 13, 2021 by the New Ayoma Police for attacking and robbing a mobile money vendor at Likpe Kukurantumi.

Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Nchor, Acting Oti Regional Public Affairs Officer, Ghana Police Service, in a news release copied to the Ghana News Agency, said the evidence presented to the Court included a handbag recovered from the convict which contained a specified amount of money.
