Man kills wife

A MAN in his early 40’s is alleged to have cruelly killed his wife.

Suspect Stephen Appiah was said to have struck Afia Abrefi’s head to a wall several times until she perished.

The heartbreaking incident, reportedly, happened at Ofoase Kokoben in the Ashanti Region recently.

Appiah after committing the heinous crime, was said to have wrapped the body in a polythene bag.

In order to cover up his bad deed and escape arrest, Appiah, reportedly, dumped the body in a bush.

The family members of Afia Abrafi did not see her in their area for some days so they reported to the police.

The police then invited Appiah and after thorough investigations he admitted to killing his wife.

What influenced Appiah to end Afia Abrafi’s life in that pain way was however not immediately known.

The suspect then led the police to bush to retrieve the body, which was almost at decomposition state.

Meanwhile, the police arraigned Appiah before the Bekwai Magistrate Court, where he was remanded for two weeks.

The prosecution team pleaded with the court to give them enough time to investigate the case further.

The court granted the prosecution team’s wish and remanded Appiah into police custody.
