Ghanaian actor Agya Koo has disclosed that he almost became a victim of the notorious occultist, Dr. Sri Yogi Ram Beckley.<\/p>\n Speaking on his Tete Mmofra Online TV podcast, the movie legend shared his near encounter with the dreaded ritualist during his early days as a cobbler roaming and hustling on the streets of Accra.<\/p>\n According to the actor, but for the intervention of an unknown woman, he might have been drawn into an uncertain encounter with the occultist at his infamous Fadama residence.<\/p>\n “Someone called me to come and work for him. I turned around, and upon seeing the house, I had the inclination that there was going to be a lot of money to make, which was natural thinking for cobblers when we are called to work in a big house. <\/p>\n “The person called me to come and went back into the house, and just as I was about to enter, a woman called me from behind, sounding urgent, insisting that I rather come and work on her shoe for her. She pleaded fervently, and I agreed to sort her out before returning to the big house,” he shared.<\/p>\n He said the woman, upon getting close to him, warned him to stay away from the house, which turned out to be the residence of Dr Beckley.<\/p>\n “As soon as I got closer to the woman, she warned me not to go into the house. She repeated herself, to my shock, and pushed some money into my palm and directed me to leave immediately. As soon as I left the place, the owner of the big house, who turned out to be Dr Beckley, was arrested two days later,” he said.<\/p>\n Dr. Sri Yogi Ram Beckley was a Ghanaian medical doctor and occultist who gained infamy in the 1990s and early 2000s for his alleged involvement in ritual killings. Based in Accra, he was widely feared for reportedly kidnapping schoolchildren and women, sacrificing them in occult rituals. <\/p>\n In 1994, police raided his home in Fadama, discovering numerous school uniforms and human skulls, leading an enraged mob to burn down his residence. Despite facing charges, including kidnapping and assault, Beckley was released on bail and later discharged from some cases due to insufficient evidence or legal interventions.<\/p>\n He resurfaced in 2002 in Gbawe, Accra, where he was accused of abducting two teenage girls, tying one to a tree and dragging the other into his home. The missing girl was never found, and his house was again torched by an angry mob. Beckley’s actions instilled widespread fear, with parents hiding their children or escorting them to school armed for protection.<\/p>\n![\"Photo](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/352\/35244127.295.jpg\" "\\"Photo")
