“Suspect Kwabena, aged 45 years, was also met with a deep cut on his neck with bloodstains on his body lying down helpless,” Inspector Ettie said.

The suspect is currently receiving treatment at the St. Francis Xavier hospital at Assin Fosu under armed guard.

The two were married with two kids.

This follows a similar incident at Gbetsile Soldier Line in the Kpone Katamanso Municipality of the Greater Accra Region where a woman was allegedly mutilated and hacked to death by her husband.

The husband in this case also tried and succeeded in his suicide attempt by hanging himself.

These kinds of killings have seen an increase in recent times in the country.
