The first report on the autopsy conducted on the body of the dead junior doctor, Dr Desmond Kabah, indicates there was no violence, Eddy Annan, Board Chairman of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital has disclosed.
27-year-old Desmond Kabah died under bizarre circumstances. His body was found Sunday night in his flat at the Hospital.
His naked body was found on his bed, with stab wounds and portions of the flesh on his leg scrapped off and the police said they suspected foul play.
Mr Annan, speaking in an interview on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show Monday, said the body of the deceased was found after two days after he died and ants had invaded the body.
He said the fact that blood oozed from some parts of the body created the impression that there was foul play.
Preliminary reports, he said, indicated “clearly there was no sign of violence.”
He added that one more report is outstanding and that the right conclusions can be drawn once that is released.
Meanwhile junior doctors who say they live in fear following the death of their colleague have declared an indefinite strike.
This was after management failed to meet a 24-hour ultimatum to improve the security conditions their residence.
But Mr Annan said it would be better for the doctors to engage with the authorities to find a lasting solution to their concerns.
“Yes, there’s been a problem there, nobody wants anybody dead. Their demands are being adhered to.”
The Board Chairman said some policemen have been deployed there and that tall trees which cover the street lights are being cut down.
“They want 24-hours result, it’s not possible.
“At least you (the doctors) have seen that the administration is doing something so why do you go on strike?” he asked.
