Nathaniel Nsetor, the 40-year-old teacher who allegedly ate his one-month-old daughter, Yaa Ohenewaa, at Sefwi Asanwinso in the Western Region, has been sent to the Ankaful Psychiatric Hospital in the Central Region for a mental check-up.
Nsetor's action led to the baby's death. When Nsetor appeared before the Sefwi Juaboso magistrate court on Tuesday, on a provisional charge of murder, the presiding judge, Osei Kwaku, gave an order for the suspect to be sent to a psychiatric hospital for examination to ascertain whether he had any mental illness.
ASP Timothy Bassah, the Sefwi Asawinso district police commander who disclosed this to DAILY GUIDE, noted that the suspect would return to court after the medical experts at the hospital had finished with their work.
Nsetor, a teacher at Dokukrom Junior High School near Sefwi Juaboso, allegedly 'chewed' little Yaa Ohenewaa, early Monday morning, leading to her death.
ASP Bassah said Nsetor hailed from the Volta Region and had been married to Vida Nimako, a native of Sefwi Brafo near Asawinso, for over 20 years and the two were blessed with five children."
Because of his work, the suspect and the wife were not staying together but Nsetor visited the wife almost every weekend at Sefwi Brafo.
ASP Bassah noted that over the weekend, the suspect travelled from Dokukrom to Sefwi Brafo to visit the wife and the one-month-old baby girl.
According to the district police commander, on Monday at about 12:30am, while Nsetor, the wife and the baby girl were sleeping, the suspect woke up and began to behave abnormally by shouting and praying on top of his voice, so the wife became alarmed and went to call her mother who was also staying in the same house.
The police officer said while the wife was returning she met the suspect carrying the one-month-old baby girl in his arms and when the wife insisted that Nsetor hands over the baby to her, the suspect started beating the wife and ran with the baby towards a nearby bush.
He said Vida shouted for help so people came around and as they chased the suspect for the baby, they could see Nsetor biting the face of the baby girl like a cannibal, with the little girl crying.
He disclosed that the "cannibal" began chewing the baby girl from the nose, then the ears, the forehead and then the eyelids.
The district police commander indicated that when the people managed to arrest the teacher, they realized that the baby girl, who was still in his arms, was dead. They then handed over the suspect to the police.
He pointed out that the body of the deceased had been deposited at the morgue in St. John of God Hospital at Sefwi Asafo.
