Four students of the Kumasi Senior High Technical School [KSTS] have been caught performing what is believed to be occultic rituals in an uncompleted building at Tanoso in the Ashanti Region.
The four [name withheld], aged between 15 and 17 years, were handed to the Police Wednesday where they admitted to having performed the said ritual to fortify themselves ‘physically and in athletics’
But the owner of the uncompleted building where the four juveniles were arrested holds contrary view. She told the Abuakwa Police that she suspects the four boys were contracted to perform the ritual in a bid to kill her.
She claimed she had previously found slaughtered fowls and other ritual-related materials in her uncompleted building; something she said has made her worried for her life. To her, she has no doubt the four boys are behind the said previous rituals.
Meanwhile, the four have been granted bail pending investigation into the matter, after which they would be charged for court for “unlawful entry and offensive conduct”, Supt. Joseph Nyaaba, Commander of the Abuakwa Police told TV3.
According to the Police, talisman and other materials for rituals were found on the four juveniles who the KSTS school authorities have confirmed to be first-year Day students of the school.
Confirming the arrest to TV3, Supt Nyaaba said the owner of the uncompleted building is insisting on pursuing the case as she fears some people may be behind the said rituals to get her killed.
