An 18-year-old student of the New Nsutam Senior High Technical School in the Abuakwa-North District of the Eastern Region has met her untimely death after being allegedly stabbed to death by her boyfriend.
According to information gathered from myrepubliconline.com, Abigail Asare, a form two student of the school and resident of Accra, visited her boyfriend, Emeka, said to be a Nigerian, on the morning of Friday, June 2, 2023, around 9 a.m., soon after leaving school for the mid-term holidays, which began on Friday.
Not long after, Emeka is said to have left the shop without his girlfriend.
Minutes later, a customer who came to the shop for a haircut saw the lifeless body of the victim on the floor, soaked in blood from knife wounds.
Alarmed by the spectacle, the eyewitness quickly informed the Akyem-Nsutem police, who also informed the Kyebi police, with men from the Kyebi Divisional Police Command responding immediately to the scene.
The police conveyed the lifeless body of the student, which has been deposited at the Kyebi Government Hospital for preservation and autopsy as investigations into the incident continue.
The suspect has since fled the community, as a follow-up search of his home revealed his absence.
It’s unclear what happened between the two inside the shop that led to the suspect stabbing the young woman.
School authorities have yet to comment on the incident.
