A woman has been found dead in the Koforidua stretch of Densu River. The body was found in supine position on rocks in the river near the Dam of Ghana Water Company Limited in Densuano Community suburb of New Juaben South in Eastern region. The body of yet to be identified woman dressed in local cloth with black piece of cloth around the waist but without sandals was found in the river Friday Morning. The Densu River is reported to have also been full after rainfall few days ago compelling Ghana Water Company Limited to open the dam to avoid damage. Mr Benjamin Appiah, assembly member for old Estate West confirmed the incident.
He said deceased is not known in Densuano community and its surrounding areas therefore suspects she might have drowned from a distance yesterday but swept to the Dam area of the river. Benjamin Appiah, said it took the intervention of New Juaben South Municipal Chief Executive Isaac Appaw Gyasi who released a vehicle at the assembly to the NADMO and Police to transport the body to the mortuary.
