A serial killer known as the Accra Strangler terrorized women in Accra and Kumasi for almost a decade. Victims were found strangled, with some showing signs of further harm.
The fear gripped communities, leaving residents, especially women, uncertain of their safety. The attacks created widespread panic across the cities.
The case took a turn in February 2000. Police arrested a mechanic from Adenta, identified as Charles Kwabena Ebo Quansah.
His arrest followed the murder of a specific victim, marking a significant moment in the investigation.
The details of his crimes and the subsequent investigation are now being brought to light.
This case remains one of Ghana's most notorious and chilling criminal events.
