A final-year student of the Akenten Appiah Menka University of Skills Training and Entrepreneurial Development (AAMUSTED) has been stabbed to death over an alleged theft in Bantama – a suburb of the Ashanti Region.
Eyewitnesses say the student, believed to be in his late twenties, was killed after an elderly woman claimed he had stolen her bag and reported him to her 30-year-old boyfriend.
This resulted in an altercation between the two men after the deceased refuted the allegations and threatened to kill the other.
Events leading to the death of the student, known popularly in the community as ‘Gye Nyame’, are reported to have occurred on Sunday, September 1, 2024.
The scuffle between the two ensued for days until the clash on Tuesday, September 3, leading to the stabbing in the head.
The student was rushed to the Suntreso Government Hospital but died on the way.
Attempts by local leaders in the area to halt the altercation prior to the death incident proved futile.
The suspect has since been placed in police custody and is expected to be processed for court.
