A 33-year-old Ghanaian migrant, Frederick Ofosu, who was facing deportation from Malta has committed suicide, according to The Times of Malta.
According to reports, he was forced to “feel like a criminal” by a new immigration policy in that country.
Ofosu who had stayed in Malta for over eight years was found strangled with an electric cable in a Qawra building site on Saturday night. He left a recorded message for friends explaining his despair, saying he was being forced to feel like a criminal when he had done no wrong.
Mr. Ofosu is reported as having gone to Malta eight years ago, leaving Ghana because of extreme poverty.
He worked for a number of years, but after he lost his job he was faced with a number of demands from the authorities, including documentation he could never provide, said Ahmed Bugri, director for the Foundation for Shelter and Support for Migrants.
Dr Bugri who identified the victim together with a Ghanaian embassy official, said the government’s decision …

Less than four months after taking a sledgehammer to then-candidate Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Jamie Otis was sentenced today – and justice was not as rough on the admitted vandal as he was on the ex-Celebrity Apprentice host’s five-tipped honor.
Facing a maximum of three years in jail and $10,000 in fines, Otis plead no contest in L.A. Superior Court on Tuesday and got no time behind bars at all. Instead, the 53-year-old self-described activist was given three years of formal probation and 20 days of community work. He was also ordered to pay $3,700 to the Hollywood Historic Trust and $700 to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for the damage he did to Trump’s star on October 26.
Otis formally entered a plea to one felony count of vandalism, according to Deputy LA County D.A. Sandra Peña.
Posing as a city construction worker, Otis attacked and destroyed the star on Hollywood Boulevard near Highland Avenue in the early morning of that October day just bef…

Former Hong Kong leader Donald Tsang has been sentenced to 20 months in prison for misconduct.
Tsang led Hong Kong from 2005 to 2012 and is the most senior official in the territory ever to stand trial for corruption.
He was found guilty last week of misconduct in public office, in a case related to a luxury flat in China.
In sentencing, Judge Andrew Chan said: "Never in my judicial career have I seen a man fall from so high."
A number of senior former officials in Hong Kong had written letters to the court in defence of Tsang's character.
The judge said he took Tsang's reputation and long public service into account in sentencing, taking 10 months off what would have been a 30-month sentence. The maximum penalty could have been seven years.
Tsang was cleared last week of a second count of misconduct, while the jury failed to reach a verdict on a third charge of accepting an advantage. He is expected to be retried on that charge in September.
There was little emotion …

Malaysian investigators are seeking to question a North Korean diplomat over the killing of Kim Jong-Un's brother at a Kuala Lumpur airport, national police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said Wednesday.

Police have put five North Koreans in the frame for the killing and have said they are seeking three more for questioning.

Of those wanted for questioning, one is attached to the embassy and one is on the staff of a North Korean airline, the police chief told reporters.

"We have written to the ambassador to allow us to interview both of them. We hope that the Korean embassy will cooperate with us and allow us to interview them quickly. If not we will compel them to come to us," Khalid said.

Controversial Zimbabwean prophet, Paul Sanyangore has said he has God's direct phone number and receives calls from him on how to help his followers. Speaking to H-metro, about a video where he was seen prophesying to a church member while on the phone during his Sunday service, he said: 'I have a direct channel, actually I have his number and I can call him when need rises. 
People believe that the prophet could have been on the line with someone with information on the church member, but he responded saying:

'It is possible to talk to God, why would you doubt that I got a call from him? I actually have a direct line which I can call him and get instructions on how to proceed. I got this when I was praying and I heard a voice telling me to call direct.

I got instructions on the phone on what to do or say and that is what happened on Sunday. If the heavens spoke to Abraham why not us? You are of faith and people will always have doubts while others are being deli…

Chris Brown's ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran has filed court documents claiming the rapper vowed to kill her, and added that he's beat her up before.
Considering her claims, a court granted her a domestic violence restraining order and now Chris must stay 100 yards away from Karrueche, her mom and her brother, according to a new report in TMZ.

Dr. Opuni has been occupying the position since 2013, but was sacked January 13, 2017 when President Nana Akufo-Addo took office.
