Man, 30 castrates wife, 26

A 26-year-old woman from Bomaa, near Duayaw Nkwanta in the Tano North District of the Brong Ahafo Region, had her most treasured asset, the clitoris, severed following a quarrel with her estranged husband.

Akua Serwaa, a mother of three who was left in a pool of blood after the incident, was rushed to the St John of God Hospital at Duayaw Nkwanta, where she is currently on admission receiving treatment while the police have launched a manhunt for her estranged husband, Atta Kwaku, 30, who has vanished into thin air after committing the heinous act.

The barbaric incident, DAILY GUIDE gathered, happened around 9:30pm on Thursday night after the suspect had invited the victim to his house to collect some money to take care of their three children as he was billed to travel the following day.

The couple, the paper learnt, had some marital problems a couple of weeks ago compelling the victim to relocate to her family house located in the same town.

According to reports DAILY GUIDE gathered from sources close to the family, Atta Kwaku, after the act, supposedly called her mother-in-law on the phone to inform her about all that had happened.

He claimed that there was a quarrel with his wife and the woman attempted to strangle his balls, so in self-defence, he mutilated her clitoris in the process. He fled the town after narrating his side of the incident.

Meanwhile, the victim, Akua Serwaa is yet to tell medics and the police what caused her present situation. For reasons known to her, the victim had at the time of filing this report, refused to disclose her ordeal to the medics and investigators.
