I am not a lawyer but I think the charge should be a manslaughter. Can the prosecution prove a case of murder here?

How can a chief claim to be wise when his own people are ignorant, unwise, debt collectors, rebels, daylight murderers, etc.

Who watches the watchman ? not only is our society now plagued with the worst forms of hegemony and chauvinistic tribalism but our govt is now the leader in govt sanctioned 419 sakawa scam operations that its notoriety has gone global.we shall now begin a series that exposes the modus operandi of these criminals as all one needs to be is quietly observant and one will see the proofs . in short they take a worthy idea or project , proclaim it good then when it is started by the gullible all of a sudden there are problems , procedures and processes which in the end result only in the promoters or companies spending from a few thousands to millions , in the meanwhile these ndc officials and their civil servant cronies line their pockets with monies from these unsuspecting genuine businessmen. there is definately no agenda to move the country forward , thousands of businesses are being sabotaged in this manner . the pact and alliance of these northerners and ewes cover all institutions so no investigation in these malpractices are undertaken. yes the anti Akan coalition is there to rob not only the Akans but all the unsuspecting who dare to come with their capital but the word is out and now people are getting wiser. the institutions such as the police , army , bni and so on are not there to protect the law but rather cover up for all these criminal activities by the northerners and ewes. if anyone doubts just take the time to investigate what happens to any project in the pipeline starting with the stx or any project for that matter. ministers dont know what their directors are doing , ministries that are supposed to coordinate with each other cant , files getting lost until someone pays , and the tricks are endless. yes its now time to tell the people the truth about these good for nothing criminals of tribal affiliation . their dubious reputation is known globally so now nobody serious wants to touch them yet they continue to travel the world to entice the ignorant who very quickly learn this is a scam govt which does not care about anything but what they can put in their pockets today . we shall soon have our war or revolution to rid us of this yoke. now they steal from us in broad daylight and think of elaborate media spins and schemes to hide the true facts but look carefully the truth is always there . long live the republic of Akan

You put this headline; "Two arrested for 'beating' female teacher to death", when you read the story the cause of death was not by beatings, she runaway and fell in the process when she was about to be hit with a chair. Making headlines sensational doesn't mean you should write anything at all. Anyway this was unfortunate and may her soul rest in perfect peace.

According to the story, the deceased did not in any way threatened the lives of of any of the accused. Also the deceased according to the story was there to render her apology to the offense, meaning she did not intend to provoke the accused. If one kills without the intention of self defense and or out of provocation (depends on time of provocation and action), such killing could be a murder. In this particular incidence, it may appear not to be premeditated murder but who knows. The details not covered by the article inform that the teacher was attacked at the school by the family of the pupil then while she came over to the family to plead for peace, she was re attacked with a weapon(the chair), a sign of premeditated murder. The prosecution may determine which degree of murder to charge the accuse.

The headmistress should have known better not to put the teacher in the harms way by sending her to the animals who don't know the value of a education for that matter the importance of a teacher who will always be there for that kid despite the mistake.
She needs to blame herself for the death of this young teacher.

Where in this world any normal person will kill a teacher in such a barbaric way.

The two animals deserve a firing squad not jail.

Hmmmm, Corney say it again. But we have a culture where if you offend someone, elders in the community ask you to apologize, pacify the offended. This is always done to prevent court cases etc. Those idiots who attacked the teacher were perhaps drunk or on something. I think there should be various forms of discipline but that which cause physical injuries should be avoided.
You remember that when you and I were in school, our teachers used to whip us even for getting an answer to a question wrong. That helped us study hard to become who we are today. Things have changed but attacking a teacher who erred is not a solution to any problem. Hope those found guilty are put in Hades.

You are really an idiot and I know if this would have happened in Volta region, your take would have been different. First, the family members of this child who caused the death of the teacher should be charged for causing the death of the teacher but not murder. The Teacher died accidentally due to the family members of this child but they did not kill him. For you to call them animals is very stupid. This was an emotionally charged situation and as you said, the headmistress was really wrong in going there with the dead teacher.

This could have happened anywhere as emotions are part of human nature though others can control theirs better than some. You are subtly expressing your ethnocentric opinion here and it is not funny at all. A tragedy has happened to both families and we don't need you to express any ethnocentric sympathy.

This is not murder, the worst charge in this case is manslaughter which I even doubt because they did not touch her. I didn't do law but any literate person will know this.

It's very sad a young Teacher should lose her life this way because of the stupidity of the two morons but this is not a murder case legally. Manslaughter is what this case is since she was not directly killed by the two morons. It is going to be impossible to prove that the two wanted to kill the Teacher.

This is sympathetic may her soul RIP. but to those self made lawyers who are saying, the suspects should charged with manslaughter instead of murder, I think the best charge will b decided by the AG not u nor the Police. This is the meaning of the words from our criminal code, 1960.
Murder: with intent
Manslaughter: with negligence
so self lawyers pls do your homework well.

How do you prove with intent to kill from intent to harm? Are you going to ask the two if they intended to kill the teacher?

The right charge is negligence which can be proven in that, by being negligent which they were, their negligence caused the death of the Teacher. You cannot charge anybody anywhere with murder when their action did not directly cause a death.

Whoever wrote this report with such "overblown heading" should be cautioned in court for putting fuel into a smoldering flame. The unfortunate victim fell into a gutter as she fled the threatening assault/approach of the child's family member. So where was the beating? Please, be an objective reporter in such matters and not try to whip up hatred for others.

According to eye witnesses reports, they beat and chased her at the home of the accused and as she frees to save self from further assult, she fell into the gutter
