A 35-year-old farmer has shot
his 42-year-old wife to death at Akyem Nkroso-Abessim in the Eastern region for
unknown reasons.
The acting Public Relations
Officer of the Eastern Regional Police Command, Sergeant Francis Gomado, while
confirming the case to Daily Guide said the culprit, who bolted after
committing the crime, has been arrested.
He also noted that the farmer,
after the murderous act on Tuesday, December 5, 2020, disappeared from the
family house.
The farmer is said to have tried committing suicide but luck
eluded him as he rather fell unconscious.
Some youth in the area, upon
seeing the lifeless body rushed him to the Apedwa health centre where he is
receiving treatment under police guard.
Meanwhile, the body of the deceased, Abena Owusua,
has been deposited at the Suhum Government Hospital morgue pending autopsy.
