Confirming the incident, commander of the Kasoa DOVVSU, ASP Doris Aggrey Laryea told Mireku Nyampong that the condition of the boy was terrible as bloody wounds and scars were spotted all over his body indicating  that the boy has been subjected multiple times of maltreatment by his stepfather.

According to ASP Doris Laryea, it took the intervention of arresting officers to save Wisdom Godwin from an angry mob who were already lashing the latter too for his unguided conduct against the lad.
