Facts
Presenting the facts of the case, Chief Inspector Benjamin Moore Ankrah said the convict and the victim were both residents of Dichemso in the Ashanti Region.
He said the convict accused the victim of trying to snatch her boyfriend and warned her to stay away from him lest she would ‘design’ her face with a blade.
He said on July 19, 2022, at Diamond Hotel at Dichemso, a suburb of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region, Bella (with other accomplices now at large) managed to lure the victim to the place and inflicted the wounds on her.
The victim was found by a police patrol team whose members rushed her to the Manhyia Government Hospital where she was given first aid before being referred to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital for treatment.
