Ejura-Sekyedumase.Ernest Attah Kyei, 38, was discovered dead around 4:30 p.m. on Monday, July 31, 2023, after family enquired about his whereabouts.
In the room, the dead allegedly left a message and some bottles suspected of containing hazardous chemicals.
The terrible occurrence is alleged to have happened just a few weeks before his wedding on August 20th.
Although the specific cause of death has not been determined, some family believe it was caused by a recent trauma the deceased experienced after being robbed of GH7,000.
According to a friend of the deceased, James Owusu Ansah, the body has already been deposited at the morgue, and police have taken over the investigation.
“We heard on Monday that our colleague was no more and I ran to the place to see for myself and I saw him hanging in his room with a sponge. I searched in his room and found some medicines he had taken before hanging himself. Upon further checks, we found a note he had left behind containing his father’s number on it.”
“Some were saying there may have been a problem between him and his family, but I got in touch with the family, and they indicated there was no problem. I also heard that some fraud guys had taken about GH¢7,000 from him, and I think that may be the cause. But when I asked the father, he told me that the stepfather and the brother gave him GH¢20,000, so I don’t think that may also be the cause and so the body is at the morgue.”
