Father allegedly burns his 3-year-old baby for disrespecting him

A man believed to be a Togolese has allegedly caused severe burns on his three-year-old daughter at Obuasi Ahansoyewodea in the Obuasi East District of the Ashanti region.

The 35-year-old father who placed the child on hot water said the girl was disrespecting him and also displaying irresponsible behaviour at home.

Adom News’s Isaac K. Normanyo reports that the accused initially ignored narrating what happened to the little girl, but was rather lamenting that his child obeys the mother and ignores his instruction.

“Her mother has taught not to respect me, now when I want her to do something or take something for me, she ignores me,” he told the Adom News correspondent.
