Following thorough investigations, the police identified 21-year-old Daniel Tuffuor, also a final-year student at KNUST, as the primary suspect. Surveillance footage from the university’s CCTV system provided critical evidence, capturing Tuffuor in distinct attire at the crime scene. Upon further inquiry, law enforcement recovered the same clothing in his possession, strengthening the case against him.
In response to this shocking incident, KNUST has intensified security measures to enhance campus safety. The administration has deployed over 50 security personnel, including mobile patrol units from the Anti-Robbery Squad and SWAT officers, to boost surveillance. Currently, CCTV cameras cover about 80% of the university, but plans are underway to achieve full coverage in the coming weeks.
Additionally, the university has issued precautionary measures to students, urging them to prioritize safety. They have been advised to move in pairs after dark, steer clear of secluded areas, minimize carrying valuables, and promptly report any suspicious activities to security officials.
Law enforcement agencies continue to investigate the matter to ensure justice for Yabani and her grieving family. Authorities remain committed to bringing those responsible to account while reinforcing safety measures to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
