The Anyinam police have intensified investigations into circumstances surrounding the death of a 61-year-old farmer, Opanin Kwabena Nkansah.His badly decomposed body was found in the bush about two kilometres from Abomosu, near Kwabeng in the Eastern Region.The late Opanin Nkansah, a farmer at Kwabeng, left home for his farm within the vicinity of Kwabeng on July 21, 2010 but did not return and a police investigation led to the discovery of his body last Tuesday.Due to the very bad state of the body, which was virtually in a skeletal form, it was buried on Wednesday at Kwabeng upon the advice of a medical officer after consultations with the family.According to the Anyinam District Police Commander, DSP (Rev) John Opoku, when the police found "the body in such a badly decomposed state, a medical officer was invited to the scene and he recommended that it should be buried with no post-mortem, as a medical examination could not determine the cause of death.He said the family members who were also at the scene agreed to the medical officer's suggestion after consultations with him and the police after which a shovel was used to remove the body parts to be buried at Kwabeng.DSP Opoku, however, indicated that since the location of the body was far from the deceased's farm at Kwabeng, the police suspected foul play, adding that "we have intensified our investigations to apprehend the murderers"."My men are on the ground and I hope we will get the criminals, although it may take a long time," DSP Opoku stated.He, therefore, appealed to the public to volunteer information that would lead to the arrest of the criminals.Source: Daily Graphic
