The prosecution said on April 29, the couple went to their farm where Theresa picked a quarrel with Gyaame over his alleged unfaithfulness and threatened to harm him with a cutlass. At about 0100 hours the next day, the accused woke her husband from sleep and demanded an explanation to his relationship with another woman. Chief Inspector Abotsi said Gyaame denied the accusation but Theresa who was not convinced, thus, he held her husband’s genitals and he shouted for help.
