The Korle Bu Police Command in the Greater Accra Region has arrested a 45-year-old woman who is believed to be a sympathiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), for allegedly pouring hot soup on a neighbour.
This was after a feud between the victim and Elizabeth Elijah, popularly known as Bose (the perpetrator).

According to the Daily Graphic, Hawa narrated that she had gone to fetch water when the incident occurred at Abossey Okai Zongo Junction in Accra to fetch water.
Hawa said they both exchanged insults and as the confrontation got nasty Elizabeth lifted the soup that was on fire and poured the contents on her.
Hawa expressed shock that all those present at the time looked unconcerned.
The police who confirmed this said “she (Elizabeth) is in the cells and we are still in the process of preparing her for court,” the source said.
Meanwhile, the victim has been discharged from the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital but goes back for review, pending surgery to remedy her burns.
