The Tesano Divisional Police Command is investigating the death of a 33-year-old man, Enoch Abrokwa, who allegedly died after being stabbed by his 19-year-old girlfriend, Emmanuella Asante, during a disagreement at Ofankor Barrier in Accra.
According to preliminary police investigations, the incident occurred on Friday, October 9, 2026, at the deceased’s business premises.
The confrontation allegedly escalated, with the suspect stabbing Abrokwa in the chest with a piece of broken glass.
He was initially rushed to a hospital at Taifa-Burkina before being referred to the Ridge Hospital, where he underwent surgery for a deep wound that reportedly affected his intestines.
He died on October 14 while receiving treatment.
Police said the suspect was arrested on October 10 after being brought to the police by the complainant and three other people.
She reportedly admitted to stabbing the deceased and remains in police custody as investigations continue.
The suspect was subsequently arraigned before a court and remanded into police custody to reappear on November 10, 2026.
The Accra Regional Police Command has urged the public to resolve disagreements peacefully and refrain from violence.
It has also called on the public to cooperate with the police as investigations continue and appropriate legal action is pursued.
