Men Jailed For Stealing Alcohol

The Juabeng Circuit court in the Ashanti Region has sentenced two men to one month in prison for unlawful entry and stealing.

Reports say the men unlawfully broke into a drinking spot belonging to one Kwasi Poku at Mamponteng and made away with some bottles of alcoholic drinks and other items.



 Kwasi Poku told Adom News he traveled to his hometown for some weeks but received a distress call from his worker that some unknown persons had broken into his shop.

“I was away on a trip when I had a call that some thieves have broken into my spot and made away with some alcoholic drinks and some undisclosed amount of money and even packs of cigarettes.

Kwasi Poku said he reported the matter to the police and both accused persons were arrested.

“Some neighbors who actually saw those thieves informed me and we reported the case to the police which led to their arrest,” he said.

The court presided over by Comfort Tafiama sentenced the men after they pleaded guilty to stealing.

They were found guilty on the count of unlawful entry and stealing.

Man Shot Himself And Entire Nuclear Family Dead

 A farmer found shot dead in a lake killed his wife and three young children before turning the gun on himself, police believe.

The family had celebrated a relative's birthday and been to a local football game in the days before the tragedy, the paper reports.

The alarm was raised when the Hunt children failed to turn up for school - which has only 74 pupils - on Tuesday.
The bodies of the children were found inside the home, and Mrs Hunt, 41, was on a pathway a few metres behind.

It appears Mr Hunt, a grain farmer, drove several hundred metres before walking into a lake and shooting himself.

The killings have left the close-night community in shock.

Deputy mayor Roger Schirmer said. "They were a highly regarded solid family. It will rock this town."

Wagga Wagga police commander Superintendent Bob Noble said police had no idea what prompted the shooting.

"Clearly something wasn't right," Superintendent Noble said.

"These things don't make sense in the world and sometimes trying to make sense of them is futile," he said.

PRIEST CHILD LEAVES PRIESTHOOD AFTER GAY MARRIAGE

Archbishop Desmond Tutu's daughter leaves priesthood after gay marriage

Archbishop Desmond Tutu's daughter, Mpho Tutu, says she feels a part of her has been stripped away after relinquishing her duties as an Anglican Priest.

Mpho who came out as a lesbian following her marriage to Danish Marceline van Furth in January this year in an interview with the BBC's News Day programme on Thursday June 9,2016 said that choosing between the person she loved and her priestly duties was a difficult one. “I have to think of all of the people for whom the choice was. I can be a priest or I can be with the person I love and at the end I can’t have both.”

“Falling in love with Marceline is probably a surprise to me more than anyone. I knew when I married Marceline that there was a chance that I would have to give up my licence. It was incredibly sad for me…to be in a position where I can’t serve at the alter… I was surprised by how much it landed because it wasn’t expected,” she told the BBC.

For Mpho, she feels more of a bisexual than a lesbian and according to her, “my marriage sounds like a coming out party.”

Desmond Tutu, 84, a retired South African Anglican Archbishop who has previously spoken out in favour of gay marriage was present at the celebrations with his wife.

Asked how her father received the news of her marriage, MPHO said, “I think it has saddened him as well. It has saddened him as this is where the church is now and yes of course, he’s a father and I’m his child.”

She expressed the hope that her decision to come out would spark a conversation in the Anglican Church.

“We have gay, lesbian, transgender, bisexual and people of every description sitting in our pews and standing in our pulpits as well and yet very often they sit in fear in the pews and they stand in fear in the pulpits because they are not free to fully owe who they are and who they love.”

Same-sex marriage was legalised in South Africa in 2006.
