The decapitated body of a middle-aged man has been discovered at St Kizito’s Primary School in Bole, Savannah Region, in what authorities suspect to be a ritual murder.
The gruesome discovery was made by a search party comprising police officers and community members. The body was found naked on the school pavement, with both the head and manhood severed. The identity of the victim has not yet been established.
This incident is the latest in a series of murders that have plagued the town of Bole over the past three months. The frequency and nature of these killings have sparked significant concern among local residents and officials.
Abu Hassan, the Assemblyman for the Mempeasem Electoral Area, described the situation as serious and alarming. He emphasized the need for increased government and security agency intervention, stating that the current police presence is inadequate to handle the escalating violence.
Hassan pointed to the recent influx of new residents into Bole as a possible factor in the rise of these violent incidents. He suggested that the murders might be orchestrated by these newcomers and called for measures to regulate and verify the identities of those moving into the area to prevent further violence.
The discovery of the body at the school has heightened fears among residents and prompted urgent calls for action to ensure their safety and security.
Local authorities are urging the government to reinforce the police force in Bole and to implement stricter measures to control and monitor the influx of new residents.
The community remains on edge as investigations continue into this and other recent murders in the area.
