Items retrieved from him included a black bag, and a yellow and white piece of cloth containing a talisman.
Speaking to Citi News, Azumah Apiagah a family member to Kojo Appiagah said he is mentally unstable the reason for his action.

According to her, she heard on some radio stations that his brother has been arrested adding that she was shocked at the turn of event.
