    So someone with " massive bleeding & a ruptured spleen" was treated & discharged on the same day from hospital?

    I am sitting here in tears because poor attitude of some doctors in Kumasi. They've just managed to kill my sister.
    Insensitive people. One day, someone will angrily pull a gun on med staff/doctors in KATH. Mark it.

  • True Patriopt 10 years ago

    First this guy didn't die immediately after the attack and the Doctor shouldn't have released him; the victim should have been rushed to a bigger Hospital like the Agogo Presby Hospital for further treatment.

    The suspect ...

    I think this should have been man slaughter.
    I hope all the facts are not given here, cos if the death was as a result of a fight, using their instruments of work, Hmmmmm

  • USA 10 years ago

    I aggree with you as this should be a case of manslaughter or second degree murder which does not call for death penalty. The convict's lawyer should look into the charge. He was overcharged. He, however, would have to face t ...

    Come back and talk to sensible people when you can get yourself to understand English and the difference between murder and manslaughter. Until then go back into the dark hole you came out of.

    They put him in jail for maybe 5 years since the deceased acted stupidly. William did not negotiate for the two, but himself and he too could have gone and done the same negotiation instead of submitting to fighting. Now you ...

    The case here does no merit a murder let alone for any credit worthy Judge to sentence the defendant to death by hanging.

  • Ed the Red 10 years ago

    This judge is mad! He needs to be removed from the bar. This is manslaughter not murder! They were in a fight. He had an intention to inflict harm, not kill the deceased! A miscarriage of justice!

  • DrGhetz 10 years ago

    This is not premeditated murder, aah ba!

  • lipualipua 10 years ago

    What about secopnd degree murder? The report simply says murder and so the charge can be second degreemurder.

  • kwame 10 years ago

    My sympathy with the deceased. That idiot Judge and his panel/jury are mad!!! If the doctors found out that the man was healthy and discharged him, then they caused the complications. Aside the harsh sentence I think the Jud ...

    The deceased did not die on the spot as a result of the attack by the defendant.

    There is no Murder here but manslaughter.
