Ex-boxer severs own penis
A 64-year-old retired boxer, George Kofinti, is
recovering at the Hohoe Municipal Hospital after
severing his penis.

According to him, it was in response to an
“order by the Holy Spirit”.

George Kofinti, popularly called, ‘Who are
you?’ was seen naked with a knife, chanting war
songs and dancing.

He was later seen with blood covering part of his
body. His neighbours, suspecting he might be in
some difficulty, telephoned the Police who rushed
to the scene.

Mr Kofinti was found semi-conscious lying in a
pool of blood.

They found a cut up of his penis and rushed him to
the Hospital for medical attention.

Medical Superintendent of the Hohoe Hospital; Dr
Edwin Danoo has told the GNA Mr. Kofinti is now in
stable condition.

But sources close to the GNA reveal the victim
suffers occasional mental imbalance, which could
have led to the incident.
