A man accused of being a wizard escaped death on his farmland on Thursday at Duusi in the Talensi District of the Upper East Region.

The man, Kugre Moses aged 36, called on the police to arrest the perpetrators and bring them to book. He was allegedly accused by some parents of being a wizard that tries to enchant children to produce money for him.

Mr. Kugre said he was on his farmland when about five parents of some children in the area confronted him and started beating him up. He sustained head wounds and a fracture on his left leg.

It took the intervention of the Zuarungu Police to rescue him to the Bolgatanga Hospital for medical care. He revealed further to Citi News that this was not the first time he had been accused of wizardry.
