According to the prosecution, Boahene made frantic efforts to reconcile with Jennifer but she refused.
C/Insp. Yeboah told the court that on October 17, 2016 at about 10:30 p.m., Boahene, who was armed with a machete, went to Jennifer’s house and inflicted multiple wounds on her and thereafter went into hiding.
Mr Yeboah said a complaint was lodged at the Anyaa Police Station and while the police were searching for Boahene to effect his arrest, his family approached Jennifer’s family at Twifo-Praso where both families lived.
C/Insp. Yeboah said Boahene’s parents paid GH¢7,700 as medical bills and compensation to Jennifer’s parents to discontinue the case.
The prosecutor said Jennifer, who was not part of the decision to settle the case out of court, informed the police when Boahene resurfaced, and on March 3, 2017 he was arrested in his house at Ablekuma Fan Milk.
