The three suspects arrested for being part of the Banatama gang rapists have been revealed to be JHS and SHS students.
According to the Ashanti Regional Police Command, two of the suspects are in their first year of senior high whilst the other is in his final year of junior high.
The three were picked up for being part of the gang rape video which went viral on social media Monday, showing at least four boys taking turns raping a young lady whilst another forcefully holds her down.
Police believe the perpetrators are seven in number and are on the hunt for the four accomplices in the video.
The identities of the arrested suspects are being kept under wraps for now.
