Cudjoe Hlolary, a fetish priest, has been accused of a gruesome murder in the Central Region. He is alleged to have killed a 41-year-old woman.

A police statement confirms Hlolary's arrest in connection with the death of Joyce Akua Amponmaa.

Hlolary has confessed to the crime. He provided a chilling explanation for his actions.

He claims that during spiritual trances, he experiences an overpowering compulsion to behead human beings.

This self-professed spiritual urge is how he justifies the violent act. Authorities are investigating the full circumstances.

The motive appears linked to ritualistic practices as Hlolary is a fetish priest.

The Ghana Police Service is continuing its investigation into this disturbing case.

Further details will be provided as the investigation progresses.
