The Ghana Police Service has arrested Malcom Fraizer, also known as Nii Djan, in connection with the fatal murder that escalated into a violent confrontation.

The arrest, carried out on July 1, was made possible through coordinated police intelligence and the circulation of a video clip related to the incident, which surfaced online.

The development highlights the increasing role of digital evidence and social media in modern criminal investigations.

According to preliminary police findings, the incident occurred on April 1, 2025. During interrogation, Fraizer reportedly confessed to engaging in a physical altercation with the victim.

He told investigators his actions were motivated by a personal grievance—allegedly discovering that the deceased was in a relationship with his ex-wife.

Malcom Fraizer is currently in police custody and assisting with ongoing investigations. Under Ghanaian law, murder is a capital offence, punishable by life imprisonment or, in rare cases, the death penalty—though a de facto moratorium on executions has been in place for years. The charge falls under the Criminal Offences Act, 1960 (Act 29).

The tragic incident sheds light on the emotional volatility and danger often associated with domestic disputes. While data for 2025 is still being compiled, past records show that domestic violence remains a persistent issue in Ghana, affecting individuals and families across all socio-economic backgrounds.

The swift and intelligence-led arrest by the Ghana Police Service underscores its growing capacity to leverage technology in fighting crime.

But beyond the operational success, this case serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of unresolved personal conflicts—and the urgent need to foster peaceful, lawful means of addressing domestic disputes.

As investigations continue, the nation awaits further details about the confrontation and the justice process ahead.

In April 2025, a 44-year-old man, Kusi Enock, allegedly murdered his wife, Ama Kwakyewaa, during a quarrel on their farm at Akyem Adwafo, a community in the Akyemansa District of the Eastern Region.

The fatal altercation occurred during an early morning visit to the farm, where Kusi Enock is said to have struck his 47-year-old wife on the chest and head with a stick.

According to reports, the couple had been separated for three months due to ongoing domestic issues.

The suspect had reportedly threatened to commit a murder-suicide in the past and had previously attempted one unsuccessfully.

The couple’s houseboy, Osei Amponsah, who later confirmed the tragic news to the media, suspects that Kusi might have been trailing the victim.

He added that he lodged a complaint with local committee members and the police upon receiving news of the incident.
