Pregnant woman pleads for the release of her husband sentenced to six years imprisonment for assaulting her

A pregnant Ghanaian woman, 22-year-old Priscilla Sackey is pleading with authorities to release her abusive husband, who has been jailed for six years over domestic violence. According to Priscilla, she only wanted the police to punish Richard Adjei to deter him from further abusing her, but he unfortunately ended up in prison. "On the day my husband was arrested, he assaulted me, and I went to report him to the police. When the police came to arrest him, he was not home. When he came back, he subjected me to beatings for reporting him to the police. This angered my aunt, who reported him again, leading to his arrest, she told Crime Check. Priscilla said despite being abusive, she needs Richards help to take care of their child. Priscilla said she regrets her actions and therefore wants her husband released since her family and that of her husband have turned their backs on her. At least, if Richard were here, he would have worked to take care of us. Please help me get him released, she pleaded. Priscilla and Richard have been married for two years.  The post Pregnant woman pleads for the release of her husband sentenced to six years imprisonment for assaulting her appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
