T’di kidnappings: Families want DNA test done abroad

-

Families of the three girls missing in Takoradi are demanding an independent forensic analysis of human remains retrieved by the police from a cesspit at Kansoworodo.

A team of experts from the police CID retrieved the bones from a cesspit inside the rented home of the kidnapping suspect Samuel Odotek Wills who’s being held in connection with the crime.

According to the police DNA from the bones would be compared to samples from families of the girls to establish if the remains are those of the victims.

The family however don’t trust the police to carry out a genuine examination.

Mr. Alexander Kuranchie, father of Priscilla Mantebea Kuranchie who agreed to give DNA samples to the police for the forensic analysis has changed his mind.

He and the rest of the families believe the announced discovery of bones is only a cover-up by the police.

In an exclusive interview with Joy News’ Kojo Yankson, the distraught father said the police service has not been candid with them.

He wondered why the police went to search the house of the Nigerian kidnapper, Sam Udoetuk Wills almost a year after his arrest.

Mr. Kuranchie said he will not give his DNA sample until he is assured the test would be done by an internationally recognised forensic laboratory.
