A 34-year-old woman, Helena Oduro, also known as Yaa Ohenewa, has been remanded in police custody for kidnapping a 5-year-old girl at New Edubease in the Adanse South District of the Ashanti Region.
The KG1 pupil of Future Assurance Academy at New Edubease reportedly did not return from school on March 2, 2025.
Parents of the missing child reported the matter to the police and announced it on multiple media platforms.
The 5-year-old girl was eventually rescued on May 12, 2025, by the Tuobodom Police following a tip-off from neighbours of the suspect in Tuobodom.
