Residents of the Tema Main Harbour Railways area were left in shock on Friday following a gruesome incident in which a man was reportedly beheaded by a suspect believed to be mentally unstable.
The attacker, identified only as Ali and said to be in his 30s, allegedly decapitated a man believed to be in his mid-50s, who worked as a caretaker in the area.
Eyewitnesses told the Ghana News Agency that Ali carried the severed head in a bag and walked through parts of the community before being apprehended by the police.
He later led officers from the Tema Regional Police Command to the scene where the rest of the body was discovered.
