Two people are in critical condition and receiving treatment at the Bawjiase Polyclinic after they were caught with the body of a 10-year-old boy.
The suspects, Fofo Agboyemeh and Kwame Agboyemeh, reportedly exhumed the body of the deceased, identified as James Ajoyemeh, from the Adawukwa cemetery near Awutu Bawjiase in the Awutu Senya West District.
They were accosted by some okada riders at Ashalaja around 1 a.m. following a tip-off, leading to their assault by an angry mob.
The swift intervention of the Denkyira Police saved the two from being killed.
The suspects were taken into custody at the Awutu Bawjiase Police Command and were later sent to the Bawjiase Polyclinic for treatment due to the severity of their injuries.
Adom News sources say the suspects exhumed the body three days after it was buried.
