Information reaching DAILY GUIDE indicates that a 27-year-old man whose name was given only as Dominic has allegedly killed his girlfriend, Victoria Tetteh, 23, at Dunkwa-Mfuom in the Upper Denkyira East Municipality of the Central Region.
The unfortunate incident occurred last Tuesday.
According to sources, the boyfriend who is currently on the run, allegedly killed the girlfriend by crashing her head with cement blocks.
According to some residents, Dominic had dated Victoria for about a year now.
“What we can say is that the two have had a beautiful relationship until recently when the suspect started accusing his deceased girlfriend of cheating on him,” they asserted.
It was gathered that the suspect, who is an illegal miner, on Tuesday went to Victoria’s house where an argument ensued between them.
Sensing danger, the deceased left the place and ran to her sister’s house nearby to prevent Dominic from harming her.
However, the suspect rushed to the house of his girlfriend’s sister and demanded that she come out from the room. According to information gathered, the sister decided to come out of her single room to calm Dominic down.
She later decided to go to her landlord who lived nearby to assist her in resolving the issue and locked her sister inside her room.
It was, however, gathered that immediately Victoria’s sister left, the boyfriend broke into the room and purportedly used a cement block to hit the head of Victoria and left her in a pool of blood.
The sister returned with the landlord and met Victoria motionless and lying in the pool of blood in front of the door without the suspect.
Victoria was pronounced dead on arrival at the Dunkwa Hospital and the lifeless body kept at the hospital morgue for autopsy and preservation.
The sister together with the landlord have since reported the incident to the Dunkwa Police.

Meanwhile, one Isaac Newton Kumah, another young man accused of killing his 25-year-old wife, Eunice Ameh Narh with a machete at Nungua in the Greater Accra Region, was yesterday remanded into police custody by the Teshie Nungua District Court.
A Citinewsroom report says the accused also allegedly inflicted machete wounds on the stepfather of his deceased wife.
The report says Isaac Newton Kumah, has been provisionally charged with murder for killing his wife and another count of causing unlawful harm for inflicting machete wound on his deceased wife’s father.
The report said the accused pleaded not guilty to the charge of causing harm, while his plea on the charge of murder was reserved by the court as it lacks jurisdiction to take his plea on that.
He is expected to reappear before the court on May 22, 2023.
The report added that Michael Teye Narh, father of the deceased, in an interview after proceedings said he expects prosecutors of the case to get good judgment for the family.
