Pregnant Ghanaian Woman Jailed For 2 Years For Hitting Her Husband's Girlfriend by ChangeIsCostant: 8:51am On Jul 23, 2018
A woman has landed in prison after assaulting her husband's mistress. It was gathered the woman who is five months pregnant was convicted and jailed for two years after hitting her husband's side chic with a sandals in Ghana.

According to a Ghanaian journalist identified as Ibrahim Oppong Kwarteng, the woman's husband brought his girlfriend to their house and allegedly gave her his wife's cloth to put on. The scorned wife who was shocked by that act - confronted the lady and attacked her with a sandals.

Because of the assault, the woman was sent to prison despite her pregnant condition.

Read what the journalist shared on Facebook;

I encountered this beautiful young lady at the Nsawam Female Prison last week. She has been convicted for 2 years with a 5 months old pregnancy, and came into the prison with her one and a half year old son. Her offence? She tells me her "husband" brought in his girlfriend into the house and gave the lady her dress to wear.

She couldn't believe what was unfolding in her eyes and could not contain the humiliation. She confronted the lady and a fight ensued. In the course of the struggle, she hit the lady with a sandals she laid hands on and was jailed for assault. Since coming to prison, this so-called husband has never visited her.

My appeal is for some of our judges to fully consider the overall context of events before handing down sentences. I have a feeling they are sometimes misled by the police? For how long will the Alternative Sentencing Bill which could possibly prescribe community sentences in such cases, continue to gather dust in Parliament?

Shouldn't pregnant women be given suspended sentences instead? I simply don't understand why the Criminal Offences Act 1960 which obviously needs a review after so many years of usage continue to dictate the pace. We are all not safe!

She has a fine of 1400 Ghs to pay and another 2000 for the injuries caused to her attacker, making it 3400 Ghs in all to secure her release. You may want to help! At Crime Check Foundation, CCF, we champion the cause of the poor and the voiceless. Join us do so!

Women should learn to control their anger

You're pregnant no exempt you from being punished if you misbehave.

You are kidding right?

Why did you think she deserve any of the punishment you listed above?

The woman is finer than him. She’s even pregnant. They are both on the same level.

The law is mostly to oppress the weak.

The lawn in the prison yard appears well mowed and the environment largely well maintained. If you enter the Kirikiri Prisons in Lagos, you'll be numbed for days. Words alone cannot describe the rot in that environment.

It's horrible.

I still don't understand why women are fighting over men!
I don't understand why wives are stressing about side chicks or floozies.
It is an absolute waste of time.
Let men be!!!

She's expected to compensate the 'injured' victim for the 'damages' caused and not supposed to be jailed for this act. This is a mere case of assault and battery.
