A 50-year-old fisherman at Aveme-Agbesia in the Kpando District has been arrested by the police for causing the death of a 28-year-old man.
According to the Volta Region Police Public Relations Officer, Inspector Joy Afagbedzi, on May 3, this year, the deceased, Kennedy Kofi Bam, a father of two children, accused his wife of having an extra-marital affair with the fisherman but the wife denied the accusation.
He said as the argument raged on, another woman, Enyonam Sesenu eavesdropped on the conversation and told the fisherman of what had transpired between the couple.
He said the suspect and Kennedy met at a drinking bar later in the day and started an argument but calm was restored and the suspect was prevailed upon to leave the bar.
The Police PRO said however, the suspect hid somewhere near the deceased's house and pounced on him when he was on his way home and stabbed him with a knife.
He said shouts by the deceased attracted some neighbours to the scene who rushed him to the Margaret Marquart Hospital where he died the following day and the body deposited at the mortuary of the hospital.
Inspector Afagbedzi disclosed that Sesenu has also been arrested and charged as the second suspect in the case.
