The body of the late Haggar Nyorkpatey, 27 years, and a seven-month-old pregnant woman was discovered at her farm at Yaw Wusukrom, near Nkrankwanta, the district capital.
According to a statement issued and signed by Chief Inspector Thomas Akeelah, the Public Relationship Officer (PRO) of the Bono Regional Police command, the police discovered that the throat of the deceased was slashed with a sharp object, with blood clots in her mouth and ear canal.
No arrest has been made so far, however a copy of the statement made available to the Ghana News Agency on Monday said the police were investigating the incident.
It explained that one Charles Asante, 57 years, reported to the police that on November 6, 2025, the deceased, his younger brother’s wife left home to her farm near Yaw Wusukrom, and did not return.

It added that the body had since been deposited at Dormaa-Ahenkro Traditional mortuary for preservation and autopsy.
