A popular guest house owner, known as “James Bond”, alleged to have murdered his girlfriend, is on the run.
According to reports, the tragic incident occurred at the BJ Tech Guest House in Ehiamankyene in the Fanteakwa South District.
The victim has been identified as Koryo, who was a well-known food vendor at the Ehiamankyene market.
Reports suggest the victim had a child with the suspect, James Bond, but the two did not stay together.
Family sources revealed the relationship after the victim’s relatives strongly disapproved of it.
On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, the tragic incident occurred when the victim visited the suspect at his guest house and never returned home.
Reports suggest, the victim’s younger brother went to the guest house and peeped through a window and found his sister in a pool of blood, alerting their parents immediately.
The Begoro police later retrieved the body on the evening of Thursday, November 13, 2025 and deposited it at the Begoro Government Hospital.
Tension later flared up with angry youths setting an Apsonic GY9 motorbike belonging to the suspect ablaze, and they aggressively tried to burn down the entire guest house.
John Kwame Narh, the Deputy Director of NADMO in the Fanteakwa South District, revealed that the suspect is currently on the run.
Meanwhile, the Police in Begoro have launched a manhunt for the suspect James Bond.
Also, the Begoro Police are urging the public to remain calm as investigations continue.
In related news, the Ghana Police Service has announced the arrest of four suspects for the murder of Nana Owusu Korkor, the destooled Akwamuhene of Tanoso in the Bono East Region.
According to the Police statement, the suspects were arrested between Monday, November 10, and Tuesday, November 11, 2025.
The suspects have been identified as Issifu Addae (alias Akwasi Addae), aged 48, Stephen Gyamfi, aged 55, Augustine Arhinful, aged 42, and Martha Mansah, aged 65.
The deceased had reportedly been destooled but contested the decision, leading to disputes.
According to police sources, all four suspects have denied any involvement in the killing during interrogation but are in custody, assisting investigations, while police pursue four others linked to the case.
The findings suggest the late destooled chief had been accused of misappropriating five gold bars belonging to the family, and also illegally selling family land.
The suspects Issifu Addae, Stephen Gyamfi, Sampson, and Fosu allegedly visited the disputed land to stop the developer from continuing work and threatened to teach the deceased a lesson.
The Police Investigators further suspect the newly installed Akwamuhene, Nana Akyeampong Duodu, might have masterminded the murder.
Nana Akyeampong Duodu is said to have travelled to the United States at the time of the murder to establish an alibi.
