Operatives of the Ghanaian Police Force on Tuesday, April 25, arrested a man for the alleged gruesome murder of his 6-year-old son. He reportedly cut off his head and legs for ritual purposes.

The suspect, Abdul Salam, a 36-year-old farmer, is believed to have buried the child in a shallow grave in his farm.

According to Ghana Star, a resident in an interview with Prestea-based Energy FM said the boy went missing Monday and a search party led by the Unite Committee was constituted.

After a thorough search, they discovered the father of the young boy was complicit. The resident who was part of the manhunt indicated that, having accomplished his mission, the suspect dug a shallow grave in his farm and hurriedly buried the boy.

The resident said the suspect was escorted by the police to where he buried his son and was then asked to exhume the corpse. Upon interrogation, the wicked father revealed that he butchered his innocent son to use the head and legs for rituals.

Meanwhile, the suspect is currently in police custody assisting in investigations.

This is so sad!
