Woman seeks police protection after jealous ex-boyfriend ‘killed’ three

The lady at the centre of Friday’s arson attack launched on the family of her current boyfriend at Dansoman has asked for police protection.

A woman and her two children died after their bedroom apartment in Dansoman was set ablaze Friday.

The attack was allegedly orchestrated by one Kofi who has accused the brother of the deceased of snatching his (Kofi) girlfriend.

Though Kofi is at large, his ex-girlfriend whose name has been withheld for security purposes is living in fear and is pleading with the police to protect her, her current boyfriend and the rest of his family.

She told Joy News she had previously suffered physical attacks and consistently received threatening text messages from unknown persons.

The 22-year-old said although she broke up with her former boyfriend in 2010, she has not lived in peace ever since.

She has pleaded with the police to step up efforts to apprehend the perpetrators of the arson attack because she may be their next target.
