A nine year old boy known as Yaw has been tortured by his biological mother Birago in Ahantamo near Akrodie in the Asunafo North Municipality in the Brong Ahafo Region.
The callous woman subjected his son to intense pain after burning his eye with fire for failing to keep watch over her beans stew which was being cooked.
She accused the little boy of not obeying simple instructions thereby allowing the stew to burn and as a result punished him by that inhumane act.
The heartless woman was later picked by the police after concerned neighbours who were shocked by her action reported her to the police.
