Kasoa, Ghana – In a shocking and tragic incident, a 15-year-old boy has reportedly died after being beaten by his mother over a missing GH¢80.00. The incident occurred in the American Town area of Kasoa, where the mother runs a well-known bakery.
According to reports, the mother discovered that GH¢80.00 was missing from her money over the weekend. Believing that her son had taken the money, she confronted him and demanded that he confess to the theft. When the boy did not admit to taking the money, she allegedly beat him and threatened to turn him over to the police.
The situation took a devastating turn when the boy, still suffering from the beating, was put in a taxi to be taken to the police station. Unfortunately, he passed away during the journey.
On Monday, reporters from the Ghana News Agency (GNA) visited the boy’s home. They found the family in deep mourning, with members wearing mourning attire. Although the family confirmed the tragic incident, they chose not to speak to the press about the details. They did, however, mention that the case had been reported to the Kasoa Divisional Police Command.
In a confusing twist, a follow-up visit to the police station by GNA revealed that no official report had been filed regarding the boy’s death. This raises questions about the communication between the family and the authorities, as well as the handling of the case.
GNA also visited the mother's bakery, which was found closed. This has led to further speculation and concern among the community members, who are deeply troubled by the incident.
The deceased boy’s body has been taken to the Mother and Child Hospital in CP, a suburb of Kasoa, for further examination. The circumstances surrounding his death have sparked widespread outrage and sadness in the local community.
Many residents of Kasoa have expressed their disbelief and sorrow over the incident. “It’s unbelievable that a young boy would lose his life over such a small amount of money,” said a local resident who wished to remain anonymous. “This is a tragedy that should never have happened.”
The community is now calling for a thorough investigation into the boy’s death. They want to ensure that justice is served and that such an incident does not happen again. “We need to understand what really happened and why it happened,” another resident said. “The authorities must get to the bottom of this and take appropriate action.”
This incident has also highlighted issues of domestic violence and child abuse within the community. Many are now urging parents and guardians to find non-violent ways to resolve conflicts and to seek help if they are struggling to manage their anger or discipline their children.
The Kasoa Divisional Police Command is expected to provide more information on the case as investigations continue. In the meantime, the community mourns the loss of a young life and grapples with the tragic events that led to his untimely death.
