STUDENT STABBED TO DEATH BY COLLEAGUE (PAGE 3)

A FIRST-year Agricultural Science student of the St Andrews Senior High School at Assin Fosu, Antwi-Boasiako, was stabbed to death by his course mate, Osei-Gyamfi, when the deceased demanded a GH¢7 debt owed him by Osei-Gyamfi.
According to the Proprietor of the school, Mr Richard Asiedu, both Osei-Gyamfi and Antwi-Boasiako were day students of the school and lived in the same rented premises at a Fosu suburb and that from their relationship as classmates, nothing seemed to suggest any bad blood between them.
Mr Asiedu said it all started when the landlord demanded his rent from the two and Antwi-Boasiako told Osei-Gyamfi, who owed him GH¢7, that he was giving Osei-Gyamfi GH¢1 to add to the GH¢7 to pay his (Antwi-Boasiako’s) rent.
The proprietor said that demand did not go down well with Osei-Gyamfi, resulting in a quarrel which degenerated into a fight.
He said during the brawl, Osei-Gyamfi picked a knife and stabbed Antwi-Boasiako several times, resulting in his death.
He said Osei-Gyamfi had since been arrested.
Antwi-Boasiako’s body has been deposited at the St Francis Xavier Catholic Hospital at Assin Fosu, while police investigations continue.
