The incident occurred on Saturday, 28 September 2024, when Victor Appiah, a 50-year-old pastor and founder of the End Time Rapture Family Church, allegedly killed his 46-year-old wife, Akua Emelia, by beheading her on a cassava farm.

According to reports, after committing the brutal act, Victor took his own life by ingesting poison.

The couple, who were parents to eight children, had a troubled history of ongoing domestic disputes.

Akua had previously left the marriage due to these issues, but family members revealed that Victor had recently persuaded her to return.
