Residents of Adum Nsuoase, a Kumasi suburb, woke up to the shocking news of the gruesome murder of a four-year-old girl on Tuesday morning. The right eye and tongue had been removed and the body dumped into a big gutter close to Justmoh Conference Centre near the Railway Police station. The corpse looked whitish and pale and a closer examination showed the girl might have been drained of blood obviously for ritual purposes by her killers, who are currently at large. Eyewitnesses could not immediately identify her or her parents as at the time of filing this report, so it was believed she might not be a resident of the area. The time and place of committing the heinous crime could also not be established but eyewitnesses suspected the girl could have been killed somewhere and dumped in the gutter. Ironically, there were no blood stains either on the body of the deceased or near the gutter where she was found dead, creating the impression her killers might have strangulated her. The deceased girl had the right side of her face swollen as well as some bruises at the lower part of her right cheek. Source: Daily Guide
