‘I’m Victim Of A Spell’ – Veteran Tamale Lawyer

Lawyer Luguterah

Lawyer A.A. Luguterah, one of the early attorneys in the Attorney-General’s Department and the second Northern lawyer, claims he has been bewitched.

The old man told DAILY GUIDE that Diporetindogo Tindana, a resident of Bolgatanga in the Upper East Region, threatened to deal with him after he paid him GH?1,000 for helping him get a buyer for a piece of land.

He claimed the Tindana felt the money given to him was not enough in relation to the cost of the land.

A.A. Luguterah told DAILY GUIDE that a few weeks after the threat, he started experiencing nightmares and great pains which have become so severe that he can hardly sit down for 15 minutes without urinating.

The matter was reported to the Bolgatanga Police and when the accused was invited, Lawyer Luguterah said the Tindana confessed that he sent his spirits at him.

The Police pleaded with the Tindana to recall his spirits to save the life of Luguterah and so a total amount of GH?20,000 was requested to buy some animals to sacrifice for the spirits to free him.

GH?20,000 was handed over to the police to be given to the Tindana to stop the spirits from killing him and restore his health.

He alleged that the receipt issued to him when he made the payment of GH?20,000 indicated that the said money was meant for compensation and not sacrifices.

The former attorney is now appealing to the IGP, Northern Regional Police Commander, government and other human rights institutions to come to his aid.

When DAILY GUIDE contacted Superintendent Samuel Tibil Punobyin of the Bolgatanga District Police Command, he said that the case was actually reported to the police and that the Tindana was invited.

He added that Tinsana never confessed that he would kill the former attorney.

According to him, if the Tindana had made that confession, they would have arrested him because that would be a criminal case.

He indicated that the case was a civil one since the police do not deal with spiritual issues, adding that they sought an amicable resolution of the impasse.
