Ningo (GAR), Oct.
15, GNA – A fisherman cum herbalist said to have been entrapped in a love
triangle, has been found killed in what Ningo locals believe to be a crime of
passion.

Agba-Teye Adjer
alias ‘Kwaley Majee’ or ‘Olenuloo’ aged 60, is believed to have fallen deeply
in love with another man’s wife at Ahwiam Tsebi, a suburb of Ningo, in the
Ningo Prampram District.

An eyewitness
told  the Ghana News Agency that he was
found  around 4 am lying in a pool of
blood.

A former assembly
member for the area, Mr. Francis Teye Addotsu, told GNA that around 2 am,
Joseph Narh Afframah, nephew of the deceased, called him and told him that
someone had butchered his uncle and that he was in a critical condition.

He said he was
reliably informed later that on that fateful day, Adjer had met the woman’s
husband in her house where he had gone to look for her.

The husband became
suspicious of the deceased’s request and therefore probed further.

This ended in an
argument and Adjer (deceased) who reportedly had a cutlass, swung the object
across the man’s face who also pushed him resulting in a heavy fall that ended
his life.

Superintendent
Mohammed Issa Kantona, Prampram. District Police commander, confirming the
death of the man, said they had a call on early morning Monday 14th October
2019 which a police team responded to and found a lifeless body covered with
leaves.

He said, they
realised that there were deep  wounds on
the body which showed  that he had been
cut severally but the suspects were on the run.

“We are
suspecting two men and a woman.

We don’t want to put
out any name to the public yet as we have launched investigations into the
issue,” he said.

Meanwhile, the body
of the deceased has been conveyed to the Police Hospital morgue for autopsy.
