The woman identified as Comfort Agboloshie has been arrested by police.
She was apprehended for allegedly setting her husband and brother in law ablaze in Ghana.
According to Ghana Web, Lawrence Nkem, the victim and husband of
the suspect, and his brother Benjamin Oyem were burnt severely when she
set fire to some clothing items soaked in kerosene and threw them into
the room where they were sleeping and locked the door.
The suspect’s husband who survived the tragic nightmare went into a
coma at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, while his brother died.
After a police investigation was carried, the Public Relations
Officer of the Tema Regional Police Command, Assistant Superintendent of
Police (ASP) Ms Juliana Obeng, confirmed that the incident occurred in a
house at Ashaiman Lebanon Zone Two on Thursday, November 17, 2016.
She said before the suspect carried out the act, she allegedly took
her three children, all females, aged four, seven and nine, from the
room in which they were sleeping with their father and uncle before
setting them ablaze.
Speaking on rescuing the man and his brother, she said neighbours
who saw the fire managed to rescue the two brothers who had sustained
severe degrees of burns and quickly rushed them to the Tema General
Hospital.
Meanwhile, it’s yet to be revealed what must have led to the
woman’s harsh decision to kill his husband and brother in-law at their
home.
