The people of Sofo Zongo in Kwesimintsim, near Takoradi in the Western Region, last Saturday morning wept when news reached them that Abu Imma, a 30-year-old petty trader and a Burkinabe national, had committed suicide in her husband’s room.

The police had a tough time entering the room to inspect the body because residents had thronged the compound to catch a glimpse of the deceased.

According to the Kwesimintsim District Police Commander, Superintendent Ayamga Akologo, at about 9:10am last Saturday, one Alfred Baah, husband of the deceased, and a certain Kofi Akawoni called at the police station to make a report.

Baah told the police that his wife, Abu Imma, was washing some dirty clothes with three of their children on the corridor at about 8am last Saturday, July 7, 2012, when he (Baah) left the house to attend nature’s call in a nearby public facility.

The husband said at the time he was leaving the house, his wife and their three children, aged 14, nine and seven were washing some dirty clothes belonging to the family.

He returned only to see a lot of people in front of his house screaming and weeping and wondered what was amiss.
Baah was informed by his 14-year-old daughter, Maame Baawa that the mother stopped the washing and went into the room for some time.

Maame Baawa later entered the room and found a piece of cloth around her mother’s neck with the tongue sticking outside, so she raised the alarm.

The husband then made a report to the police who rushed to the place and after inspecting the body, deposited it at the Effia-Nkwanta Regional Hospital morgue in Sekondi for autopsy. Meanwhile, police investigations continue.
