An Assin Foso District Magistrate's Court has bonded Maxwell Inkoom 22, a labourer at Pioneer Bamboo Processing Factory at Assin Foso to be of good behaviour for 12 months for allegedly attempting to commit suicide.
Inkoom who pleaded guilty, will serve three months imprisonment in default.
Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Akwasi Asafo-Agyei, prosecuting told the court presided over by Joseph Blay that on December 3, last year some workers at the factory saw Inkoom attempting to drink diluted 'Desban' a chemical used in treating bamboo products to end his life.
He said they seized the chemical together with a suicide note written by Inkoom that he was killing himself because he was fed up with life.
The prosecutor said the chemical was handed over to the police and after investigations the accused was charged with the offence.
