The Police in Tema have bailed two of the suspects arrested in connection with the alleged torture of a 72-year-old woman.
Two other suspects are still being kept on remand.
The suspects allegedly set the woman ablaze, under the pretext of delivering her from witchcraft.
The woman died in hospital after she was set on fire.
The District police commander for Tema Community One, Superintendent Dawson Amoah said the hospital authorities were yet to perform autopsy to determine the cause of death.
He told Joy News that one of the suspects, Emelia Opoku brought the kerosene and doused the victim whiles photographer, Samuel Gani, also a suspect, lighted her up.
“So when the fire was on, this lady, sensing danger rushed out, brought water and poured it on the lady to put out the fire,” he explained.
