The law enforcement body has further launched a full-scale investigation into the threats to the life of the sitting president and his family.
The police announced today, Tuesday, August 12, that the two suspects, identified as Prince Ofori and Yayra Abiwu, were in custody and are assisting with the ongoing investigation.
