A 32-year-old unemployed man, Michael Agyare, has allegedly murdered his mother and a teenage house help in the Eastern Regional suburb of Suhum.

The deceased 59-year-old, Madam Doris, worked at the Suhum Government Hospital as a records officer while the house help,18-year old Mary Addo was a final year student at the Suhum Presbyterian Senior High School.

The Suhum District Police Commander DSP Yaaya confirmed the incident to Joy News and indicated that investigation is ongoing.
