The Nkawkaw Magistrate Court has remanded into police custody, a 71-year-old visually impaired Ghanaian man, George Mudor, who killed his wife in her sleep.
Mr Mudor allegedly hacked his wife, Madam Grace, 65, with a machete on March 14, 2023, at Abepotia near Nkawkaw in the Kwawu West Municipality of the Eastern region, Ghana.
The suspect, who became blind five years ago, then beheaded her in the early hours of March 14 while she was still sleeping.
Co-tenants said the murder was premeditated as the suspect had allegedly made such threats though they were taken lightly due to his condition.
In court, he admitted to killing his wife over her decision to divorce him and pleaded for mercy before His Worship Isaac Agyei.
Mr Mudor is expected to appear before the court on April 5, 2023.
