An 18-year-old girl has been butchered in her room at Nweneso No.2 in the Atwima Kwanwoma Municipality of the Ashanti region by unknown assailants.
According to reports, family members woke up Saturday morning to find her in a pool of blood in her room.
Assembly member of Nweneso II, Fredrick Duah, said the girl was found dead with a severe cut in her head from a sharp object.
He, however, said the cause of the tragedy is yet to be ascertained as investigation is still underway.
"The police have conveyed the body to the mortuary and have urged the community to assist them with information to support their investigation," he said.
Brother of the deceased, Henry Acheampong, said the incident has left members of the community in fear and called for intensified security.
