24 Year Old Woman Sentenced To Death For Poisoning Three Year Old Child

A 24 year old woman has been sentenced to death by a Kumasi High Court after she was found guilty of poisoning a three year old child to death.
Talata Baana, the accused, reportedly laced rice with some insecticides and fed them to the three year old child of her ex, claiming she wanted to punish her ex for humiliating her.
However, what she planned to be a lesson got out of the hand as the child did not respond well to the poison, leading to her dump him near a bush to die.
He was found and sent to hospital, but could not be resuscitated.
In court, the prosecutor said that Baana had a relationship with the father of the boy, Nkotum Bambilla, in the past, which had ended, yet he kept pestering her for s*x.
The accused claims Bambilla once tried to rape her, but when his wife caught them in a compromising position – he lied that she had tried to steal from them and he was only retrieving the money.
She said that lie led them to disgrace her, and poisoning the boy was her revenge – which got out of hand.
