A 17-year-old junior high school student, Emmanuel Gyan, is in police custody for allegedly murdering his 52-year-old mother, Faustina Agyeiwaa, in a fit of rage over a missing mobile phone memory card.
The incident occurred on Monday, January 15, at Wassa J.Y No. 1 in the Sefwi Wiawso district. According to the Sefwi Wiawso police, Gyan’s father, Isaac Somuah, and a witness, Stephen Amponsah, reported that Emmanuel had accused his mother of taking his memory card, which she denied.
In a shocking turn of events, Emmanuel allegedly attacked his mother with a pistol, hitting her on the head multiple times until she fell to the ground. He then attempted to burn her body with naked flames.
Gyan’s father and Amponsah apprehended him and brought him to the police station. The victim’s body has been deposited at the Bibiani government hospital mortuary, awaiting autopsy.
The police are currently investigating the matter, and Emmanuel Gyan is being held in custody for further questioning.
