Man, 23, uses human parts as ‘curtains’
It is very strange to come across a young man who hangs human parts and skull in his room instead of curtains.
This strange situation was witnessed by residents of Assin Breku in the Assin North District of the Central Region where a 23-year-old man was arrested by police personnel from the Assin Foso Divisional Police Command for hanging human parts skull in his room.
The suspect, Mr. Joseph Amoah is currently with the police to assist in investigations. Meanwhile, some of the residents suspect that the hanging of the human parts in the room is for spiritual purpose.
At a news briefing, the Deputy Central Regional Police Public Relations Officer, Inspector Isaac Evans Ettie said, the Assin Foso Divisional Police which was called to the scene, arrested Joseph Amoah, for hanging suspected human parts on his window for what residents’ suspect was for spiritual purposes.
He said, the police on arrival, saw the suspected human parts hanging on the window of the suspect.
Photographs of the scene, he said, were taken while the suspected human parts had since been removed and same preserved at the St. Francis hospital morgue, Assin Foso, for investigation.
The suspect, he said, was assisting the police in their investigations.

National Democratic Congress (NDC) National Executive Committee member and Volta River Authority (VRA) Board Member, Wonder Victor Kutor, has described calls for the resignation of Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa as premature and unjustified.
He argued that there was no evidence to establish that the minister had committed any wrongdoing to warrant such demands.
Speaking on Joy News in Accra on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, Mr Kutor questioned what had changed to justify the growing calls for the minister to step down.
He recalled that the Ranking Member on Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee, Samuel Abu Jinapor, had earlier indicated that the opposition was not accusing Mr Ablakwa of any wrongdoing.
Mr Kutor, therefore, challenged those demanding the minister’s resignation to provide fresh evidence to support their position.
“The call for the Minister to resign is premature, it is untenable. There is no evidence. I mean, what has he done wrong?” he questioned.
He added that documents, including boarding passes, airline receipts and flight manifests relating to the minister’s return journey, had been provided.
Mr Kutor expressed concern that the calls for Mr Ablakwa’s resignation could discourage young politicians from speaking out against corruption and advocating transparency.
According to him, politicians should not be targeted or maligned for demanding accountability, warning that such treatment could create the impression that speaking against corruption could later become a liability when one is appointed to public office.
He maintained that calling for accountability and transparency should not be used as grounds to target public officials without evidence of wrongdoing.
