The Tesano Divisional Police Command is investigating the death of 33-year-old Enoch Abrokwa, who allegedly died after being stabbed by his 19-year-old girlfriend, Emmanuella Asante, at Ofankor Barrier in Accra.
On October 9, a 33-year-old man named Enoch Abrokwa died at his business premises in Accra after being stabbed by his 19-year-old girlfriend, Emmanuella Asante, according to the Tesano Divisional Police Command. The incident occurred following a disagreement between the couple. Ms Asante allegedly stabbed Mr Abrokwa in the chest with a piece of broken glass at the deceased’s business premises.
He was initially rushed to Taifa-Burkina Hospital before being referred to Ridge Hospital, where he underwent surgery for a deep wound affecting his intestines. Mr Abrokwa passed away on October 14 while receiving treatment. Police arrested Ms Asante on October 10 after she and three others brought her to the police station. She reportedly admitted to the stabbing and remains in police custody as investigators continue to work on the case.
Ms Asante was brought before the court and remanded into police custody, with her next court appearance expected on November 3. The Accra Regional Police Command has called for peaceful resolution of disputes and cooperation from the public as they investigate the incident.
