Man kills wife, drinks poison - Adomonline.com

Suspect Akwasi Brefo is currently battling for his life in the hospital after drinking a liquid substance, suspected to be weedicide.

Brefo, without provocation, reportedly, used a weapon to hit the back of his wife, Janet Yobo, who was then busily working in the farm.

The man and wife had visited the farm together to work on May 22, 2023 around 11 am when Brefo, shockingly, murdered Janet.

“On 22/05/2023 about 1100hrs it was reported that Janet Yobo, now deceased, went to the farm with her husband, suspect Akwasi Brefo to work but she was later killed in the farm by her said husband in the Mpasaso forest.

“Police proceeded to the scene of crime about 5km from Mpasaso town where the lifeless body of deceased Janet Yobo was found lying on her left side in a pool of blood, wearing a cream shirt over a white trouser with green cloth across her chest.

The police report, sighted by the paper, said the body of the deceased was conveyed to Plus Lab Mortuary, Mankranso, for preservation and autopsy.

“Meanwhile, suspect Akwasi Brefo is currently on admission at the Mankranso Government Hospital after he allegedly drank weedicide,” the report concluded.
