The group's arrest came days after they allegedly carjacked and killed Andrews Amankwa, the father-in-law of GoldBod CEO and National Democratic Congress (NDC) Communications Director Sammy Gyamfi, at Ohwim Tigo Junction in Kumasi on February 10, 2026.
The police stated that the deceased was ambushed and shot during the attack and that his Toyota Hilux vehicle was stolen during their operations.
Amankwa was later rushed to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries on February 18, five days after the incident.

In a YouTube video on Thursday, February 26, 2026, blogger Clement Nana Asamoah of Gossips24 TV confirmed the news of the police's manhunt for Patricia.
