A 21-year-old woman was arrested by James Town police in Accra for allegedly mocking her kidnapping.
Beatrice Naa Lamley Titson Mills was arrested after telling her family that she had been kidnapped and claimed a ransom of 10,000 GH.
She claimed to have been kidnapped on her return from work on June 24 and taken to an unknown location where the "kidnappers" had demanded ransom prior to her release.
His grandmother then reported the case to the James Town Police, where investigations resulted in the arrest of Beatrice Mills in Osu.
She is currently in custody after being provisionally charged with the offense of publishing false news.
Beatrice Mills, according to information gathered by Daily guide lived with her boyfriend, Razak Kwame, in James Town while working as a mobile money provider.
On June 24, Beatrice Mills left for work in the morning, but was unable to return home after work was done.
On June 28, 2019, her boyfriend, Razak, received a phone call from an unknown woman who said that Beatrice Mills was involved in an accident at Adjiringnanor, near East Legon in Accra.
Without knowing the hospital where the victim had been sent, Razak rushed to Adjiringanor to find out, but did not see it.
On June 30, a member of Beatrice's family also received a phone call from a woman whose accent resembled a Nigerian to announce that she had abducted Beatrice Mills and claimed a ransom of 10,000 GH.
Beatrice and her accomplices organized the kidnapping game so that one of them spoke on the phone; we could hear her crying in the background, as if she was in danger.
When contacted, James Town Police Commissioner Samuel Odame said, "Our investigations took us to a house in Osu where the abducted victim was being held.
Superintendent Odame added that police investigations had revealed that it was a hoax and immediately apprehended the alleged victim.
He added that during the interrogation, Beatrice had acknowledged the offense and confessed that she had even planned her own kidnapping.
"She said that if her family had sent the ransom, she would have taken 5,000 GH and donated 5,000 GH to her accomplices," said the policeman.
The James Town Police Commander, however, said that Beatrice had not helped the police get her accomplices.
