The victim was said to be sick and seeking healing from a prayer camp but left the prayer camp some days ago.

Speaking to Yaw Boagyan, some residents in the Community said, the pungent smell in the community, led them to the kitchen to discover the woman hanging in the kitchen.

Meanwhile, some of the community members say, they are now living in fear as they suspect someone may have killed her and hanged her in the kitchen.

The door was also locked outside with the windows locked which indicates that someone may have killed her and hanged her in the kitchen.

The Assembly Member of Abeadze Kyeakor Electoral Area, Hon. Abraham Ashun, also said this is the first time such an incident has happened in the Abeadze Kyeakor Community.

He said the case has been reported to the Abeadze Domenase Police Command for investigation.

The deceased, who is hypertensive, according to a family source, checked into the Climax Hotel in Pokuase in the Greater Accra Region with a young lady at about 5:00 pm on May 4, 2022.

Hours later, workers at the hotel heard the lady screaming for help and they rushed to the room but found the man lying motionless on the bed with foam from his mouth.

The manager of the hotel, Kofi Sintim, informed the Police at about 9:00 pm the same day about the situation.

Police personnel led by Detective Sergeant Sabutu Caesar proceeded to the hotel.

The deceased was found lying dead in a supine position wearing Jean trousers.

The police investigators searched the hotel room and examined the body of the deceased but no marks were found.

The police team however retrieved an aphrodisiac drug known as Dragon Spray from the pocket of the deceased.

While the police officers were preparing the body to be conveyed, the father In-law of the deceased who is a Fire officer and other family members, arrived at the scene having heard the incident.

The family revealed that the deceased was hypertensive.

It is therefore suspected that the use of sexual enhancement drug might have triggered a heart attack.

However, the police are waiting for the autopsy report to confirm the cause of death. The lady has been arrested to assist the investigation.

Student, 18, found dead after taxi driver abandons her on notorious road [Photos] http://34.58.148.58/student-18-found-dead-after-taxi-driver-abandons-her-on-notorious-road-photos/ Sat, 23 Apr 2022 16:27:11 +0000 https://www.adomonline.com/?p=2108041 The body of a missing student has been found two weeks after she was abandoned by a taxi driver on the side of the road.

Debanhi Escobar had been snapped standing alone on a notoriously dangerous stretch of road leading into Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, earlier this month.

The eerie image, showing the 18-year-old law undergraduate on ‘Death Road’, went viral in the days before her body was discovered in the cistern of an abandoned motel.

Debanhi had been on a night out with two pals when she got into a roadside cab with a driver, identified only as Jesus, aged 47.

He is understood to have been trusted by the group, but for reasons currently unclear he dumped her near the border with the US at around 6 am on April 9.

It is believed the pair had become embroiled in a row.

After a 13-day search, her dad Mario Escobar confirmed that the body of a young woman found on the site of Nueva Castilla motel, a few hundred metres from where Debanhi had been pictured, was his daughter.

However, the local authorities have yet to confirm the match and DNA tests are currently ongoing.

On Friday morning, a team of divers found the body in the cistern at a depth of about four metres.

The victim’s father said: “My daughter is dead and I do not know what to do.

“I demand to know why Debanhi disappeared.”

News of the teenager’s disappearance gripped Mexico after the photo of her standing by the roadside after getting out of the taxi was widely shared by local media.

The photo was reportedly taken by the cab driver and was sent to the victim’s friends when they asked him about her whereabouts.

In 2021, 77 people disappeared on ‘Death Road’ where Debanhi was last seen.

CCTV cameras filmed Debanhi entering the site of the trucking company Alcosa Transportes Internacionales just after the cabbie left her stranded.

She was reported as missing the next morning.

Footage reportedly shows her entering the company premises, but no footage shows her leaving.

Her body was found in the motel cistern nearby, between 300 and 500 metres from where she was photographed on the side of the road.

According to local reports, the driver, booked by one of the victim’s friends, had his phone switched off during the trip.

He has since been arrested on drugs charges but the police also suspect him of being linked to the young woman’s death.

Local media said the taxi driver has been investigated for the attempted kidnapping of women and harassment in the past.

The investigation continues.

According to the National Missing Persons Commission, seven women are reported as missing in Mexico every day.
