    HOW COULD YOU KILL A HUMAN BEING BASED ON MERE ACCUSATION. WHO DETERMINES WHO IS A WITCH AND WHO SHOULD DIE. PRIMITIVENESS.

  • Shergar 9 years ago

    There is no such thing as a witch to begin with!

    Is Kanawu suggesting that it would be OK to kill her as long as there was 'proof'?

  • Kanawu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 9 years ago

    Shergar, IN SIMPLE TERMS, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE WITCHCRAFT IN GHANA'S CONSTITUTION. SO NO ONE HAS THE AUTHORITY TO PUNISH OR KILL SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE THE PERSON IS PERCEIVED TO BE A WITCH. SECONDLY, IT IS NOT PRACTICAL TO AC ...

    what waywardness is this? this type of witch-hunt was abolished in the developed countries back in sixteenth century> Is Ghana moving forward or Backwards ?

    Check the definition of the word 'careless'.

  • Uri Netaker 9 years ago

    You should check the definition of the word 'careless'.

    Even the more apposite term 'uncaring' doesn't get anywhere near to describing the bestial nature of these savages!

  • Shergar 9 years ago

    The title suggests the victim died.

    The text [and previous reports] of the article suggest possibly injury only.

    Murder or attempted murder?

    How about some clarity?

    What a shame in this modern age to go about killing innocent and defenseless people because we suspect them to be witches! Let the law deal with these barbarians drastically so as to prevent future occurrences.

    In the lexicon of older women seeking younger men, a Jaguar is 50 and over, whereas the Cougar is in her 40s, and the Puma is still under 40.
