Man Stabs Son On Christmas Day

A 55-year-old auto mechanic at Adweso, Koforidua in the Eastern region on Christmas Day stabbed his 28-year-old son in the stomach. Victor Afrifa, who drove out his wife, Victoria Dokuwaa and two sons from their home as a result of a misunderstanding, was said to have stabbed his 28-year-old son, Ebenezer Afrifa, when he went back home on Christmas day to up pick some clothes for a thanksgiving service. The son was rushed to the regional hospital, where he was immediately sent to the theatre for surgery. According to a police source, the man drove his wife and two sons out of their home at Adweso in Koforidua about seven months ago after a misunderstanding between the couple. The wife, with the two sons, left for her father’s residence at the SSNIT flats in Koforidua. The police source said the elderly son, Ebenezer Afrifa, on Christmas day, decided to visit the father and help him with his laundry and also pick some few clothes he left in the father’s house. According to the source, without any provocation, the man attacked his son and stabbed him in the stomach, causing his intestines to gush out. The screams of the victim attracted the attention of some neighbours, who upon seeing Ebenezer’s condition, rushed him to the regional hospital at Koforidua. The New Juaben Municipal police commander, DSP Christopher Quaicoe, confirmed the incident and said the suspect was picked up by the police on Monday and was currently in police custody pending further investigations into the matter. The suspect was said to have attacked his son because he claimed the son, who was armed with a machete, rather came his house in the company of four other friends to attack him and he had to defend himself.
