Credible information gathered by the DAILY HERITAGE indicates that the Eastern regional police command has arrested three suspected Islamic extremists who have formed Boko Haram group at Akim Ofoase in the Eastern region and have been engaged in torturing Muslim women who defy their orders.
The suspects are Abdullah Sulemana a.k.a taller, 30, Bukari Musa, 28, and Danjima Sheriff, 17. Other members of the group are, however, at large and are believed to be hiding at Nima, a suburb of Accra.
The suspects were captured in a minute and half video tape (in the possession of the paper) torturing and lashing female Muslims at Akim Ofoase Zongo who defied their orders banning Muslims in the community from transacting business or mingling with Christians in the area.
Preliminary investigations conducted indicated that the replica group of Boko Haram formed at the Akim Ofoase Zongo community was approved by the Muslim leadership in the Zongo community with the aim of running a pure Islamic community.
