Man burns fingers of 10-year-old son for stealing ¢250

A 55-year old Osmanu Mumuni is in the firm grips of the law for severing the ears of his 10-year-old son and burning his fingers for stealing his money.

The incident which occurred at Obom-Domeabra in the Greater Accra region is said to have been triggered when the father accused the young boy of stealing ¢250.

According to the Weija Divisional DOVVSU of the Ghana Police Service, they received a distress call on Sunday, May 17, 2020, from the mother of the child that her ex-husband Osman Mumuni whom the boy stays with, had been physically abused for the said crime.
