The Management of the Koforidua Regional Hospital (KRH) has appealed to the public to help locate the relatives of some dead bodies abandoned at the hospital’s morgue.
Authorities at the hospital have threatened to bury the corpses in mass graves if the families refuse to identify and collect them.This was contained in a letter written to the New Juaben Municipal Police Commander, copied to the Municipal Environmental Officer and the Commander of the Koforidua Prisons on Tuesday.The hospital management issued a two week ultimatum, after the publication of the names of the deceased persons, after which it said it will go ahead with the mass burial.The names of the affected dead bodies included, Augustina Dombere, 27, suspected to be an Akan and sent to the hospital from Betom, a suburb of Koforidua, and Kwabena Esisi, 29, suspected to be an Ewe, and sent to the hospital from the Koforidua Prisons.
The others were Kofi Sakyi, 30, suspected to be an Akan and sent to the hospital from Nankese, Joyce Owusu, 40, suspected to be Akan and sent there from Larteh Akuapem.
