Police have arrested the woman who allegedly lit the match to set Captain Maxwell Mahama’s body ablaze.
Central regional Police commander DCOP David Ampaben who disclosed this said the suspect was arrested Friday night.
The suspect was seen in the murder footage lighting the remains of the soldier with a match.
The arrest brings the total number of individuals arrested in connection with the murder to 18.
Already, four out of the 17 have been remanded into Police custody after they were charged with murder.
Captain Mahama was lynched by an angry mob at Denkyira Obuasi in the Central Region on suspicion that he was an armed robber on Monday 29 May when some women he bought snails from while jogging, spotted a pistol on him.
