Security personnel apprehended one of the alleged suspects at the museum, while the whereabouts of the other four men remained unclear.

The man appeared subdued and regretful during questioning. However, his responses could not be independently verified, while the identities of the others allegedly involved remain unknown.

Exhumation claim attracts fresh attention

The development followed an earlier alarm from fashion personality Osebo the Zaraman. During a TikTok Live, he alleged that some individuals planned to remove Kantanka’s remains and appealed to police to intervene.

The footage has renewed attention around the controversy surrounding the burial of the celebrated Ghanaian inventor. His funeral and reported burial previously generated disagreements among members of his family and leaders of the Kristo Asafo Mission.

It remains unclear whether the apprehended man has been handed over to the police or formally charged in connection with the alleged incident.

The Ghana Armed Forces and the Ghana Police Service have also not released official statements confirming the reported security operation at the museum.
