MONROVIA – Police in Gardnerville have arrested and detained Eve Whymah and her husband after she allegedly cut off part of the finger of a 10-year-old girl, identified only as Georgina, in the Georgia Gulf community. The pair are currently being held at the Liberia Petroleum Refining Company (LPRC) Zone 4 Police Station as investigations continue.
According to eyewitness accounts, the incident occurred after Whymah accused the young girl of being responsible for a baby’s fall while the children were playing. In a fit of anger, Whymah reportedly attacked the child, inflicting a deep wound that severed part of her finger.

Local police confirmed the arrest and detention of Whymah and her husband but said details of the investigation are still being gathered. The LNP has assured the public that a full report will be made available once the inquiry is complete.
The case has reignited conversations about child protection and accountability in communities, with residents urging law enforcement agencies to take stronger measures to safeguard children from abuse.
