‘Wicked’ husband nabbed …over wife’s death

THREE SOLID days of intensive search has led to the arrest of Maxwell Boadi, who allegedly stabbed his wife, Priscilla Owusu dead at Nyankyerenease in Kumasi last Saturday.

The Kodie Police finally apprehended the run-away suspect at a secret location in Kodie in the Afigya Kwabre South District yesterday morning.

ASP Godwin Ahianyo, the Ashanti Regional Police Public Relations Officer (PRO), has informed journalists in Kumasi that Maxwell, being aware of his crime, decided to go into hiding.

According to him, the police was not perturbed as they continued their search for the suspected killed, who was eventually smoked out from his hidden place early on Tuesday during an operation.

ASP Ahianyo stated that efforts were underway by the Kodie police to transfer Maxwell to the Suntreso District Police Command, where Nyankyerenease the place of the incident, falls under.

According to the police capo, the suspected killer would be interrogated further by the Suntreso Police and afterwards the necessary charges would be leveled against him in court.

The caged suspect, according to reports, stabbed his wife, Priscilla Owusu, 31, also known as ‘Betty’ in the stomach, whom he has accused of cheating in their relationship.

Maxwell, surprisingly, was said to have committed the heinous crime right in the presence of their six year-old daughter, in their room at Nyankyerenease near Kumasi before going into hiding.
