Fourth suspect arrested in Mount Hope homicide, abduction

Hamilton police have arrested another person in connection with last year’s alleged kidnapping of a father and murder of his son.

Samson Dekamo, 27, was arrested Wednesday and charged with one count of adult kidnapping.

The latest arrest comes just over one year since 21-year-old Hasnain “Nano” Ali and his brother were shot while trying to protect their father from kidnappers at a home in Mount Hope in September 2021.

One of the brothers survived, while Hasnain “Nano” Ali later died of his injuries.
