The Kaneshie District Court has ordered that the mentally challenged woman who stoned to death a young man at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle in Accra, be taken to Psychiatric Hospital for medical assessment and treatment.
The suspect, who can still not give any account of herself, is reported to have hit the deceased with a big stone leading to his death.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with GBC News, the Nima District Police Commander, Chief Superintendent Maxwell Agyemang, said the family of the deceased has identified him as 25-year-old Kwabena Amoani.
He said the Command received a distress call of the incident at about 3 p.m. on Monday and dispatched a Patrol Team to the area.
