A pre-term baby was found dead in a gutter in Abeka-Beriberi, a community in the Greater Accra Region, in a shocking incident that has outraged the residents.
The baby, believed to be about six to seven months old, was apparently aborted and dumped in the gutter by an unknown person.
The body was discovered early on Tuesday, August 2, 2023, by a young female nail technician who was on her way to her shop.
She said she screamed and called for help when she saw the baby. “I don’t know who could do such a thing,” she said.
The community is demanding that the police investigate the matter and find the culprit behind this horrific act.
The residents are grieving and saddened by the loss of the innocent life that was cruelly ended.
