Police Inspector Ruth Gborson told the Court that the accused and complainant were co-tenants at Mpasatia.

The prosecutor said other co-tenants in the house intervened and retrieved the cutlass from the accused.
A report was made to the Nkawie police and the accused was arrested, charged with the offence and brought before the court.
