John Pantsil, Stabs Wife In The Eye by ffo(m): 10:18pm On Feb 22, 2013

Ghana defender John Paintsil has been arrested by the Legon Police in Accra for allegedly stabbing his wife, Richlove, in the eye on Friday afternoon.

The 31-year-old has been denied bail and is likely to spend the weekend in police cells to help with investigations, the Greater Accra Regional Police Command has confirmed to Goal.com.

The police have also confirmed they are holding the former Fulham and West Ham player for assault and causing harm.

According to reports, Paintsil was confronted by his wife following rumours he slept with some prostitutes during the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations tournament in South Africa.

The allegation was first made by football enthusiast and social commentator Appiah Kofi popularly known as Appiah Stadium in a radio interview.

Appiah alleged that the veteran defender was responsible for bringing women to the Black Stars camp to have sexual intercourse with them and this culminated in the team’s poor output at the Afcon.

Paintsil, however, denied the allegation and threatened to drag Appiah Stadium to court to clear his name.

The wife of the defender is reported to have questioned Paintsil on several occasions since the issue broke, but the former West Ham defender lost his temper on Friday and attacked his wife stabbing her in the eye.

Speaking to Accra-based Citi FM, the Public Relations Officer of the Accra Police Command, DSP Freeman Tettey said: “This is a clear case of causing harm to a fellow human being.”

“He will be taken to court. We can assure you that. We are holding him for causing harm. We need to do proper investigations. It's too early to get to the realm of court issues.”

Paintsil also attacked a neighbour who attempted to rescue his wife, according to police.

The wife is said to be unconscious after sustaining serious injuries to her eye and is currently at a nearby hospital receiving treatment.

First off, unless an eye can be replaced with $20,000 he went too far.

Money seems to be one of the roots of "Eye Losses"

This doesn't help Oscar Pistorius' case in the eyes of the media.
Come to think about it, Pistorius is now Notorious, so can we say Pantsil is just "Pant-silly"?

Paintsil's wife denies assault

Police say it has secured the medical report of wife of Black Stars defender John Paintsil which indicates she was badly assaulted - but his wife, Richlove Paintsil, denies the incident.

Initial reports said Paintsil stabbed the wife close to the eye and subjected her to severe beating following a misunderstanding at their Trasacco Valley home on Friday.

She was reported to have jumped the wall of their building to a next door neighbor for protection but that did not stop John Paintsil from further attacking her.

The Black Stars deputy skipper was also said to have slapped his neighbor who was protecting Mrs Paintsil.

Mrs Paintsil was rushed to the hospital for treatment whilst her husband was arrested by the Legon Police on charges of assault and causing body harm.

But in a dramatic twist, Mrs Paintsil called the studios of Joy FM to categorically deny the incident.

She said it was only a minor quarrel which should not be aired or published, adding her privacy must be respected.

She said the police's account should also be discarded.

However, the police said the medical reports they have obtained indicate Mrs Paintsil was admitted in a critical condition.

Greater Accra Police PRO, DSP Freeman Tettey, told Joy News the reports showed she sustained several injuries including a severe cut around her eye.

He said Paintsil is still in police custody as investigations continue

I'm getting tired of all these stories...

Please someone should help me define love?

Is it now a crime in marriages/relationships to discuss problems like mature adults?.

Must someones tongue get bitten off, or someone's eyes stabbed before the matter can be resolved? embarassed

He needs to be kicked into a pit and the key thrown into the lagoon!
