Owoyesigyire said preliminary examination revealed that both victims had sustained fatal stab wounds.

Crime scene documentation and evidence collection were conducted, and the bodies were conveyed to the City Mortuary, Mulago, for postmortem examination to aid the ongoing inquiries.

Several exhibits of evidential value have been recovered for forensic analysis.

The motive behind this heinous crime is still under investigation and will be communicated in due course, according to the police spokesperson, who added that efforts are underway to identify and apprehend the suspect(s).

According to reports, the couple, who were killed at around 9 p.m., had just returned from Germany after over 30 years.

On the fateful night, they threw a party for close family and friends.

Later that same night, they were murdered.

Some observers believe there was no foul play, as there was no forced entry.
