Police have retrieved body parts in what used to be the home of the prime suspect in the case involving the kidnap of the three Takoradi girls.
Two skulls and other body parts were recovered from the septic behind the former residence of Samuel Udoetok Wills at Kasaworodo a suburb of Takoradi, Friday afternoon.
It is not clear yet if the parts are that of the three girls who were kidnapped for well over a year.
A statement issued and signed by DSP Juliana Obeng says the “building was previously occupied by Samuel Udoetok Wills one of the suspects of the accused person standing trial for allegedly kidnapping the three Takoradi girls.”
The discovered human remains will be sent to the forensic science laboratory of the Ghana Police Service for analysis and further investigation,” the statement said.

Police U-Turn
At a press conference held earlier this year, the head of Police CID Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah said the police have found the kidnapped girls and will in no time be reunited with families.
Days after, she made a u-turn saying her words were only to reassure the families of the kidnapped girls and the police were still investigating.
The suspects had since been in and out of court, with a plea of not guilty to the charge of kidnap.
Operation
On Friday the Police conducted an operation leading to the retrieval of some body parts.
The operation was conducted around 7:00pm, the police statement said.
