The guy who found the child told them he heard the young boy crying in the hole, he tried to dig out the hole and to their surprise they found the handsome boy fortunately he was still alive. They made an announcement but didn’t get any trace about the person who buried the child. At the scene, Honourable Cosmos heard rumours from the crowd gathered that they heard a gunshot at the previous night.
He asked one young man who also confirmed that a man who looked like a fetish priest came to watch the football match between Ghana and Nigeria with a gun.

They went there to meet the 70 years old who also admitted that the child is his grandson. He too was arrested and the child was sent to the hospital. The parents of the young boy were also arrested and they revealed that their son is two years old but can’t walk so they all planned out to end his life.
