Police in Dansoman, Accra have retrieved the corpse of a four-year old boy from a disused freezer in the home of his parents. The late Emmanuel Dwamena Junior had gone missing on January 5 and his grandmother with whom he lived along with his parents and other tenants in a compound house lodged a complaint with the police. Madam Grace Quansah, the grandmother, was said to have later found her grandson the same day she reported the matter to the police, dead and lying in a broken-down freezer in their home. Dansoman Police Commander, ACP Paul Awini told Joy News’ Anna Agyapong Master Dwamena’s father and grandmother are in custody. Police suspect either Master Dwamena’s mother, Priscilla Sackeyfio, or his grandmother or the two of them may have murdered the boy. Dwamena’s mother, currently on admission at the Psychiatric Hospital in Accra for examination, is suspected to be mentally imbalanced and was said to have called the husband on January 5, to tell him their son was in the freezer. The father reportedly proceeded to the house - and tailed by the deceased’s 14-year-old brother - went to the deep freezer, opened it and exclaimed ‘oh!’ after which he closed it but failed to alert the police. Police say he possibly saw the body in there and they are holding him for exposing the child to danger and the grandma for murder. ACP Paul Awini said Master Dwamena was found in a prone position in the unserviceable freezer and that the body “was in a state of decomposition, it was bloated, the skin was peeling off and the lower part of the abdomen was almost opened… and with a rug around the neck.” Police said they found blood stains in the freezer and initially arrested and detained all members of the house but later had to scale down to persons with direct responsibility for the boy’s upkeep. The body has since been deposited at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital morgue awaiting autopsy.
