Ghanaian footballer in Italy confesses to the murder of his mother and sister in Parma

Ghanaian footballer Solomon Nyantakyi has confessed to the double murder of his mother and sister after he was arrested by the police in Italy on Wednesday morning.

The former Parma midfielder massacred his mother and sister with dozens of stab wounds on Tuesday afternoon in the family home in Via San Leonardo in the city of Parma.

Solomon was stopped in the Central Station in Milan early this morning by Police as he stepped off the train from Parma.

After hours of questioning by the cops, the footballer gave in and admitted his responsibility. Now the prosecutor is preparing the firm case against him.

The 21-year-old carried out the grisly murder in the house where the whole family - the mother, father, two sons and daughter live.

The father was in London on officials duties when the footballer broke the family bond with the gruesome murder.

To discover the two bodies was the 25-year-old son, Raymond, as he returned home after his shift with an engineering company.
