Five people have been arrested in connection with her death. The suspects deny the crime and claim that they were praying to exorcise the evil spirit from the dying woman, when the anointing oil they had applied to her body caught fire。
According to the police commander, the suspects claimed that Hemmah was a known witch in the area and subjected her to severe torture, compelling her to confess to being a witch。
The policeman leading the case, Augustine Gyening said after extracting the confession, Ghunney, one of those five suspects, asked for a gallon of kerosene and with the help of his accomplices, poured it all over Hemmah and set her ablaze. Then she was rushed to a hospital nearby thanks to a student-nurse but died within 24 hours。
Newspaper pictures showing the woman's injuries have caused revulsion in Ghana, and the incident has been condemned by human rights and women's activists。
英国《每日邮报》29日报道称，加纳一72岁老妪阿玛海玛因被指“女巫”饱受折磨，最后竟被活活烧死。
据悉，涉嫌此案的五人已被逮捕。但五人否认罪名，并辩驳称他们只是在祷告为这个垂死的女人驱除恶灵，结果涂在她身上的油膏着了火。
而据警方负责人称，这些嫌犯四处宣扬海玛系当地一知名“女巫”，并折磨其逼迫其承认此套说辞。
该案负责警官奥古斯汀补充道，海玛被逼承认后，五名嫌犯之一的古尼要来一加仑煤油，并和帮凶一道将煤油浇于其身并点燃。在一名实习护士的帮助下，海玛才被送进附近一家医院急救，但终在24小时内不治身亡。
海玛饱受创伤的照片见诸报刊后，加纳国内一篇哗然，该恶性事件则遭到了人权主义者和女权主义者的一致谴责。 （实习编辑：顾萍）
