A young man, Yaw Abraham, was apprehended by the youth of Ayibge Town in Kasoa, for stealing a mobile phone worth GHC1,300 from a woman's room. He was later found guilty of the crime and received a punishment that fit the offense.
The youth of the area subjected the thief to an unconventional but fitting punishment. Abraham was made to clean the gutters in the area and lift heavy metals in a makeshift gym while being whipped by the youth.
While some may think the punishment was too harsh, others argue that it serves as a deterrent to potential thieves in the area. However, it is important to note that it is not legal to take the law into one's hands. It is necessary to report such incidents to the law enforcement agencies, and the perpetrators should be punished through the legal system.
The youth could have potentially faced legal consequences themselves. Thus, the legal system should be allowed to take its course in such incidents.
Overall, the punishment given to the thief is a reminder that crime does not pay, and that consequences exist for breaking the law.
