Tragedy hit Amanfrom, a small farming community near Hwidiem, the capital of the Asutifi South District in the Ahafo Region, when seven members of a household were electrocuted during a severe rainstorm last Friday evening.
The victims were among 10 persons in the house who stepped out to seek refuge in nearby houses when the rainstorm, which was accompanied by thunder, ripped off the roof of their house.
According to the police, the striking of thunder disengaged the main electrical cables from an electric pole and the victims accidentally stepped on some live wires in the process of escaping the danger.

Four persons sustained multiple cutlass wounds while several other residents of the Nyamebeye-Beposo community near the Newmont Resettlement Camp at Kenyase in the Ahafo region sustained various degrees of injury when a group of young men, who were wielding all kinds of deadly weapons attacked them for preventing some workers of Newmont Goldcorp from forcefully invading their lands.
The alleged assailants, who claimed to have been sent by Newmont and Kenyase Number Two Traditional Council to carry out their dastardly act, reportedly told the residents that nothing would happen to them because they have the full backing of “big men”.
