that the convict had continued her act and at odd hours in the night as well as at weekends when she knew the Officers would be unavailable to check on her.

He said the activity carried out by the convict was of a grave public health concern since she did not adhere to any sanita­tion protocols in the slaughter­ing process.

Mr Azila-Gbettor said the convict often slaughtered pregnant animals and the foetus were left in the open for dogs to carry along into the community causing nuisance to neighbours.

He said on November 16, 2021, at about 1900 hours, officers were alerted that the convict’s son was processing an animal and upon arrival, they found the convict burning a goat in the house.

Mr Azila-Gbettor said convict’s son confirmed that he was assigned by convict to slaughter the ruminants for her chop bar business, which he did every Hohoe market days.
