A 20-year-old man has allegedly committed suicide by hanging at Obuasi, a suburb of Agogo in the Asante Akim North Municipality of the Ashanti Region. The incident occurred on Sunday, September 22, at about 3 p.m.
Citi Newsroom report indicates that the deceased had returned from church with his girlfriend. After eating, the two decided to take a nap, but the girlfriend later woke up to find him hanging from the ceiling.
An alarm was raised, prompting personnel from the Agogo Police Service and the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) to arrive at the scene around 7 p.m. The body was later conveyed to the Agogo Presbyterian Morgue for preservation and autopsy.
Police have since launched an investigation into the incident.
