Man stabs ex-lover for snubbing him at funeral
A 38-year-old man, Daniel Nunoo, has appeared
before an Accra District Court charged with
attempted murder.

Nunoo, who has been washing vehicles for a living,
is said to have stabbed his ex-lover in her
abdomen for snubbing him when he approached her at
a funeral.
After the act, Nunoo is said to have left her
former lover to her fate.


The court presided over by Mr Worlanyo Kotoku did
not take Nunoo’s plea and remanded him into
Police custody pending further investigations into
the matter.

Nunoo is scheduled to reappear on November 7,
2017.

Prosecuting Detective Sergeant Simeon Terkpor told
the court that the complainant, Charlotte Kai
Adjetey aged 29, is a cook residing at La, Accra.
The accused person also resides in the same area.

According to Sergeant Terkpor, the accused and Ms
Adjetey were in a relationship and they cohabited
and also had a child who is nine years old.
Due to Nunoo’s constant abuse on Ms Adjetey,
prosecution said the complainant opted out of the
relationship and the accused became peeved.

On October 8 this year, Nunoo and Ms Adjetey
attended a funeral and whilst she was leaving,
Nunoo called her but she snubbed him.

Detective Sergeant Terkpor said the behaviour of
the complainant did not go down well with Nunoo so
he grabbed Charlotte and stabbed her with an
implement.

Ms Adjetey bled and became unconscious, the
prosecutor said.

“The accused person left the complainant to her
fate, however she was rescued by two men, who
rushed her to the 37 Military Hospital, where she
was admitted and two surgeries performed on
her,” prosecution added.

Nunoo was arrested on October 18, 2017.
