Armed robbers on Sunday invaded the manse
of the Mount Sinai Methodist Church at New-Dawhenya, and robbed the Circuit
Minister and his family of their personal effects.
Reverend Joseph K. Yeboah, the Circuit Minister,
narrating the incident to the Ghana News Agency said the two robbers wearing
masks and wielding guns broke into the manse at about 2am.
Reverend Yeboah added that they threatened them
and instructed them to keep mute demanding him and his wife to hand over their
wedding rings and phones to them, which they obliged.
He said after that, they pushed them into the
bathroom and tried locking the door but could not so one of them stood guard
with them.
According to him, they searched their bedroom, bags
and wardrobes and marched them into his in-law and children’s room and searched
there too for money after enquiring who else was in the house with them.
He indicated that they threatened to kill them
as they specifically asked for the handbag his wife used the previous day
adding that one of them picked and wore one of his church branded clothes as
they were molesting them.
Rev Yeboah further said the robbers who left the
manse at about 4am hours also searched their car after which they threw the key
away which was later found.
They succeeded in robbing them of all their
phones, iPad, Samsung Galaxy tablet, i5hp laptop, clothes and an unspecified
amount of money.
The incident has since been reported to the
Dawhenya Police.
