Ghanaian Man Jailed For Life For Stabbing Wife to Death.

Minta Adiddo.

Ghanaian Minta, Adiddo, 38, of Rigby Place, London has been sentenced to at least 17 years in prison after he repeatedly stabbed his 22-year-old wife - Akua Agyeman in the presence of their 5 year old daughter and then brutally running her over with a car as witnesses watched in horror.

This is how London24.com reported the story:

"During the trial at the Old Bailey, the jury heard Adiddo launched his vicious attack on wife Akua Agyeman because he believed she was having an affair with a neighbour, who denied the allegation.

The court heard how on November 5 last year, Adiddo stabbed Akua in their bedroom with a large kitchen knife before chasing her out on to the road as she attempted to flee. He then continued his attack on the street before getting in his car and driving over his wife, leaving witnesses tending to Akua with just moments to get out of the way." Adiddo was arrested later when police officers spotted him in the vehicle still wearing his blood-stained shirt. Akua died from her injuries in hospital two months later, on January 2 2013
