A farmer who blamed his sister for the cause of his inability to make any progress in life murdered her at Tikobo No 1 in the Jomoro District of the Western Region.
Adams Isaka, 25, currently under arrest, caused a stir in the farming community when he took a machete and chopped off the head of his elder sister, Ajara Isaka.
After executing his barbaric act at about 2p.m. on Sunday, April 19, 2009, the suspect walked to the chief of the village to report himself.
The headless body and the severed head of the 45-year-old victim have been deposited at the Half Assini Government Hospital.
A police source told the Daily Graphic that the suspect’s demeanour did not show any regret for his action.
According to the police, the suspect was said to have also reported the incident to his father, Alhaji Isaac, that his sister was the cause of his abject poverty and warned Ajara on several occasions to reverse the mystical powers that were hindering his progress but all fell on deaf ears.
After he had convinced himself that the only way out of his predicament was to do the unthinkable, the suspect sharpened his machete and painfully chopped off the head of his sister to the horror of the Isaka-household and the entire village.
The Jomoro District Police under the command of ASP Issifu have taken over the investigations while the suspect is being processed for court.
