Narrating the incident , Assemblyman of Hwereso-Boankra in the Ejisu-Juaben District William Obeng recounted that the guy happens to be known by the victims' family and normally comes to the family house for food.

According to the Assemblyman, the guy forcefully entered the victim's room which also had the victim's mother and her daughter-in-law.
He heavily banged the door behind him wielding a machete and kitchen knife, and reportedly told the girl’s mother to allow him to rape her daughter or he would hack the three people in the room with the weapons.
