A 25-year old lady, Harriet Kafui Ahiati, has allegedly been murdered by his boyfriend in Ho in the Volta region.

The incident happened last night at about 10 pm when the two engaged in a brawl.

The supposed culprit, a footballer named Jay is alleged to have attempted suicide by hanging from the ceiling fan after committing the crime.

The fan, however, fell from the ceiling, giving him a deep cut around his neck.

He is currently receiving treatment at the Ho Teaching Hospital.

The body of the deceased has been deposited at the Ho Teaching Hospital morgue.

The assemblyman for the area confirmed the incident to Valentina Ofori-Afriyie on 12LIVE on Class91.3FM on Tuesday, 22 March 2021.

The development adds to a string of spousal murders in recent times.

A businessman, Prince Charles Dedjoe, for instance, is in police custody for allegedly killing his wife.
