Try as much as the  victim attempted to explain to the boyfriend that she was not dating any  other guy, Dennis was not convi8nced, and after few minutes of verbal  exchanges, went out of the room only to come back with a kitchen knife  and start slashing the girl in the face.<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, the  victim started shouting for help, attracting the attention of the  accused\u2019s father and sister, who also live in the same house, and who  came to her rescue, and quickly rushed her to the Konfo Anokye Teaching  Hospital (KATH), where she is currently receiving medical attention.<\/p>\n<p>Dennis was subsequently arrested by the Sofoline Police that same night.<\/p>\n<p>According  to the victim, Dennis told her he would either kill her or mutilate her  body to the extent that no man would find her attractive anymore.<\/p>\n<p>The  Sofoline Police have meanwhile, confirmed the incident and the arrest  of Dennis, but said investigations were ongoing to enable them prosecute  the suspect.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the GNA reports that Dennis has been  sentenced to 25 years imprisonment by a Kumasi Circuit Court, after  pleading guilty to the charge of causing harm.<\/p>\n<p>The court,  presided over by Mr. Justice Emmanuel Amo-Yartey, heard from Police  Chief Inspector Confort Baffour-Kyei that the complainant, Dorcas  Ofinam, is unemployed, and has been in a relationship with the convict  for the past one year.<\/p>\n<p>On February 10, Frimpong invited her to  his house, under the pretext of giving her some items brought from  London to him by the mother.<br \/>\nWhen she got there, he locked the door, and began questioning her about her supposed unfaithfulness, which she denied.<\/p>\n<p>The  prosecution squad Frimpong would not accept her claim of innocence,  picked a knife, and attacked her while she screamed for help.<\/p>\n<p>This attracted some people in the neighbourhood, who pleaded with the convict to unlock the door.<\/p>\n<p>Dorcas  was found in a pool of blood, and was rushed to the Komfo Anokye  Teaching Hospital, where she was kept on admission overnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A jealous boyfriend, who could not bear the pain of sharing his girl with another guy, reacted angrily, when he hacked her with a kitchen knife, leaving the poor girl with a disfigured face.
