Black Stars defender, John Pantsil, was on Friday night released on bail, after he being arrested for allegedly assaulting his wife and causing her physical harm.
Police in Accra responded to a neighbour’s call yesterday and the 31-year-old player was picked up. Initial reports said he had stabbed his wife, Richlove and caused eye wounds which left her unconscious, after a heated argument.
Ghana FA spokesman Ibrahim Sannie Daara told the press at the Legon Police Station that “John Paintsil has been released on bail following a charge against him by a neighbour.
“Mrs Richlove Paintsil did not press any charge against Mr John Paintsil and any misunderstanding between them will be solved at home.
“There was no stabbing whatsoever during the incident and no one was unconscious because of the incident.
“I am pleading with the press to be circumspect with their reportage as we have already seen some reports which are wide off the mark.”
