A 20-year-old nursing mother, Aseye Avi of Abutia-Tegbleve is in the custody of Anyirawase Police for allegedly killing her 66-year- old mother.
Aseye was alleged to have hit her mother�s head with a pestle. Her mother, Gadzi Abla, died while being taken to the Ho Municipal Hospital. Police sources said the late Gadzi and Aseye quarreled over Aseye�s new
boyfriend who was said to have dated two other women in the same family. In the course of the quarrel the late Gadzi allegedly snatched Aseye�s mobile-phone given to her by the new boyfriend and smashed it on the ground.
The sources said this prompted Aseye to reach for a pestle with which she hit the late Gadzi�s head.The scream of the deceased attracted some neighbours who were rushing her to the Hospital before she died.
A source at Abutia told the Ghana News Agency that Togbe Bese, Chief of the Community and husband of the late Gadzi and Aseye�s father broke down in tears lamenting his wife�s death and his daughter�s arrest.
Aseye, described as the ninth child of the couple, was said to be the bread winner of the family.
