The DOVVSU Department of the Kasoa Divisional Police Command has arrested a 24-year-old nursing mother, Mary Tawiah, over an alleged attempt to poison her child following her boyfriend’s infidelity.
The boyfriend, Kobby Nbelenbele, is also in custody, assisting with investigations.
The unfortunate incident occurred at the Kasoa Old Market in the Awutu Senya East Municipality of the Central Region.
Information gathered by Adom News suggests that Mary and Kobby live in Teshie, but he allegedly abandoned her to be with another woman in Kasoa.
Mary reportedly confronted Kobby and his alleged mistress at the Kasoa Old Market, sparking a heated argument.
An eyewitness, Felix Dnkwa, narrated that in the midst of the confrontation, Mary threatened to poison their child and pulled out a substance from her bag, attempting to feed it to the boy.
However, her attempt was thwarted by the swift intervention of bystanders, who quickly restrained her and handed her over to the police.
