Deceased body

Mr Joseph Sando, 35, has allegedly murdered his nine year- old son at Durowaakrom in the Asunafo South District of the Ahafo  Region.

A cocoa caretaker reportedly cut the throat of Yenube Sando, who was a primary two pupil at the Durowaakrom Primary School.

Inspector Kofi Truth confirmed the incident to  Soireenews Sulley Dramani saying the Kukuom District court has been ordered to Joseph Sando Psychiatric Hospital explaining that he does not sound normal.

“This is barbaric and inhuman so Joseph Sando is currently in police custody assisting with the investigation."

Meanwhile, some residents have appealed to the police not to hasten to attribute the cause to insanity and thus release the suspect, but thoroughly investigate the matter to rule out any spiritual connections.

They said undermining the rule of law in the investigation would endanger the lives of other citizens.
