The Police in Ashanti are looking for Ama Hagar, 25, a nursing mother of Ofoase-Kokoben for allegedly killing her seven-month-old baby.

Hagar was said to have administered a poisonous chemical to the baby, Kwaku Danquah, last Wednesday killing it for no apparent reason.

Police sources said on Tuesday that the suspect, claiming that the baby was sick, administered a chemical suspected to be poisonous to him at about 9pm that. A few minutes later the baby fell unconscious and died.

When the suspect was confronted by her relatives she claimed that she mistook the poisonous chemical for a drug for infants. She then disappeared from the house and has since not been traced.

Information gathered by the relatives, however, indicated that the suspect had already hatched a plan to kill the baby.

A report was therefore made to the police who collected the body and deposited it at the Okomfo Anokye hospital for autopsy.
