According to Starrfm.com.gh, the woman believed to be in her 40’s was not known in the community before her killing. She was only seen in the area on Thursday evening and residents suspected she must have visited someone in the community.

Some eyewitnesses are reported as saying that they saw the deceased on Thursday evening only for them to see her lifeless body early Friday morning around 6:00 am lying in a pool of blood. Her unborn baby was placed beside her with one of its legs chopped off.

While some suspect she must have been killed by some ritualists who removed her unborn baby, others also believe she was knocked down and run over by a runaway driver.

Ekumfi Esuehyia Police have started an investigation to unravel the cause of the pregnant woman and her unborn baby’s death.

Meanwhile, in other news, a 14-year-old girl could not hold back her tears as she recounted how her father heartlessly killed her mother in her presence at Kumasi on Sunday, August 1, 2021.

The heartbroken teenager alleged that her middle-aged father shot her mother at Dabaa, a suburb of the Ashanti regional capital.

According to a report by Adomonline.com, the deceased had served notice of her intention to opt-out of the marriage to avoid physical abuse and unfair treatment.

Her threat to divorce her husband did not go down well with him, and he had threatened to kill her before carrying it through despite pleas by his little daughter to spare her mother.

She reportedly told Nhyira FM’s Nana Awuku that her dad angrily stormed the house and chased his now-deceased mother around and eventually pushed her to the ground before shooting her in the ribs and chest.

She said she had to flee for her life to avoid being killed in addition to her mother because of how her father was full of anger and wouldn’t listen to her plea with him to spare her mother.

“I begged him to stop but he refused so I had to run for my life over fears of being shot too because he was very angry.

“I wanted to save my mother but I couldn’t and I wish my uncles were around to save her,” she narrated amid tears as quoted by Adomonline.com.

The alleged murderer has been arrested and is currently in police custody.

The grief-stricken four children of the couple are currently with family members at Asuofia.
