The suspects were allegedly transporting a dead body concealed in a sack. Upon being questioned, the suspects claimed they were delivering the body to an individual identified as Togbui Kpe in Amasaman.
The suspects were brought to the Danchira Police Station by the residents, who had severely beaten them, leaving them bleeding.
