Disregarding his friendship with the woman's husband, the suspect reportedly invited three other friends to gang rape the victim.
The woman was has been traumatised by the incident that she could not tell her husband on his return.
Kofi Siaw reported it was a good Samaritan who told the victim's husband about what happened.
"She was quickly rushed to the hospital and doctors confirmed the incident," the reporter said.
Residents of Akyem-Maase in the Akyem-Tafo district are distraught by the news.
They said the victim did not deserve what happened to her because she is nice to everyone in the community.
