Man Arrested After Burying Girlfriend in Septic Tank

A 26-year-old man, Kwabena Adjei, has been arrested in Sunyani for allegedly killing his 19-year-old Nigerian girlfriend, identified as Testimony, and hiding her body in a septic tank.

According to reports, a heated argument between the couple turned fatal when Adjei elbowed Testimony, causing her to fall unconscious and die instantly. Instead of reporting the incident, he kept her body in his room for three days before disposing of it in the tank near the Bono Regional Fire Command.

Haunted by guilt and claiming to be tormented by her ghost, Adjei later turned himself in to the police with the support of his uncle. The Ghana National Fire Service assisted in retrieving the body from the septic tank after it was discovered in a decomposed state.
