Weekend Chronicle

"Beheaded! Sad end of 10-year-old Dunkwa boy" is the screaming headline of the Weekend Chronicle. The story says the ancient gold mining town of Dunkwa-on-Offin in the Central Region was thrown into confusion on the eve of New Year when a 10-year-old boy who had been reported missing was discovered in a pool headless.

With a photograph of the headless Kweku Sunkwa on the front- page, the paper reports that his head has since not been found.

This, the paper said has put residents of Dunkwa in such a state of fear that they are always found indoors.
