The police have arrested one of the twins alleged to have killed a 16-year-old Junior High School (JHS) student in Berekum of the Bono Region.

The suspect was apprehended after his mother, Amina Mohammed, tipped off the police of the whereabouts of her son.

Speaking to Adom News, Madam Amina said the eldest of the twins disclosed the incident to her at Odomase in Sunyani.

After the confession, she reported her son to the police leading to his arrest.

According to Madam Amina, her children had earlier informed her that they were returning to school, but unbeknownst to her they were still home.

The mother of the suspects also rendered an apology to the deceased's family.

She pledged to offer any assistance to ensure that her other son is found and arrested to face the law.

Meanwhile, the victim has since been buried according to the Islamic tradition.
