Investigators have made significant progress in the ongoing probe into the tragic death of Joana Deladem Yabani, a student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).
In a statement issued by KNUST’s Office of the Registrar on February 28, 2025, the university confirmed that law enforcement officials and university security services have successfully retrieved Yabani’s missing laptop and mobile phone.
These items were found hidden behind the Flint Hostel, a location identified through security surveillance footage.
The discovery is considered crucial evidence in the case.
The suspect in custody was arraigned before the Circuit Court in Asafo on the same day.
The court has since remanded the suspect, with the next hearing scheduled for March 17, 2025.
Authorities at KNUST, along with the Ghana Police Service, have assured the public of their commitment to ensuring justice is served.
KNUST’s management has reiterated its support for the ongoing investigation and expressed gratitude to security personnel and law enforcement agencies for their swift action.
The university has urged students and the public to remain calm as the legal process unfolds.
Additionally, KNUST has reaffirmed its commitment to student safety and announced plans to enhance security surveillance across campus.
The statement concluded with condolences to Yabani’s family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.
