The Denu police have arrested three persons in connection with the beating to death of a woman suspected to have stolen some pieces of cloth.
Two other suspects are being sought by the police.
The three including a woman whose identities were being withheld are to be put before court soon.
A source close to the Denu police told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that about 1400 hours on May 20 the victim, Afi Kotogoli, aged 40, of Viepe near Aflao was attacked by a group of people in the area who accused her of being behind the theft of some pieces of cloth belonging to two women also residing in the area.
The group, the source said, severely beat up Kotogoli, leaving bruises all over her body, with puffy eyes before handing her over to the police.
The source said Kotogoli was rushed to the Ketu South District Hospital at Aflao where she died while receiving treatment.
