The residents of Kwahu Aseseɛso, a village in the Kwahu East District, are living in terror and uncertainty following the rape and murder of Gladys Gyamfa, a 65-year-old blind woman, in her home.
“The woman lives alone in her residence, as a result, she sought assistance from children in the area to provide her with water for domestic use due to her sight impairment. She then promised the children to come for money the next day”, stated Akuamoah Boateng, the community’s PTA chairman.
“After knocking on her door multiple times, the kids came to her in the morning and noticed she wasn’t answering.”
“They reported to their parents and after their parents and other residents came to check up on her, she was seen in a pool of blood in her room and was covered with her clothes by the unknown assailant,” he accounted on Agoo FM.
This horrible event occurred at 4:30 a.m. on Monday.
He clarified that following the police’s arrival on the scene, they reported that the dead had also been sexually assaulted.
According to Mr. Akuamoah Boateng, the woman enjoys playing practical jokes and yelling, so when she called for assistance, no one answered.
