New Update On The Murder Of Joana, The Final-Year KNUST Student

Details exclusive to ASK suggest that Joana and her boyfriend, Daniel, had been dating since their first year (level 100) and that he had a history of physically abusing her. Their friends were aware of the abuse, but Joana consistently denied it. Both sets of parents were allegedly aware of the relationship. Two weeks prior, Joana's father allegedly visited the school, saw Joana and Daniel together, and warned Daniel to stay away from his daughter.

On Monday, Daniel allegedly stole Joana's phone for ulterior motives, prompting her to report the incident to the KNUST Police Station.

The following day, Joana and Daniel went to their department to study, but the tension between them was palpable. As they left the department, two friends escorted them to the Disability and Rehab Centre of the university.

After the friends left, Daniel allegedly attacked Joana, pushing her from behind, hitting her on the ground, stamping on her, and using his knee to choke her until she became unresponsive. He then dragged her into nearby bushes, took her phone and laptop to make it appear like a robbery, and fled the scene.

When friends and coursemates called Daniel's phone the next morning to inquire about Joana's whereabouts, his phone was off.

When reached later, Daniel claimed he was unaware of Joana's location and suggested asking the friends who had escorted them. Joana's body was later discovered near the Disability and Rehabilitation Centre, where Daniel allegedly dragged her.

CCTV footage allegedly captured the events surrounding the murder, leading to Daniel's arrest. According to reports, Daniel has confessed to the murder of Joana, asserting that her death was an unintentional consequence. Source: Mintah News Network
