Ex-Boxer Severs Own Penis
A 64-year-old retired boxer, George Kofinti, is recovering at the Hohoe Municipal Hospital after severing his penis.
According to him, it was in response to an “order by the Holy Spirit”.
George Kofinti, popularly called, ‘Who are you?’ was seen naked with a knife, chanting war songs and dancing.
He was later seen with blood covering part of his body. His neighbours, suspecting he might be in some difficulty, telephoned the Police who rushed to the scene.
Mr Kofinti was found semi-conscious lying in a pool of blood.
They found a cut up of his penis and rushed him to the Hospital for medical attention.
Medical Superintendent of the Hohoe Hospital; Dr Edwin Danoo has told the GNA Mr. Kofinti is now in stable condition.
But sources close to the GNA reveal the victim suffers occasional mental imbalance, which could have led to the incident.
