The victim was hospitalised at the New Abirem Government Hospital after the assault before his death.

The New Abirem Government Hospital is yet to officially make public reports of the deceased’s condition while at the facility.

Medical Doctor at the New Abirem Hospital Dr Sekyi Attaa Larbi explained he cannot disclose the condition the deceased was treated for at the facility.

“You know by the laws, I cannot disclose a patient information to a third party. I am sorry I cannot.”

The Eastern Regional Police Command has lifted the body from the I & I Private Mortuary at Afosu for autopsy in Accra without the family’s escort.

Family members have been to the morgue, insisting to have the body.

“We need the body of my brother, how can the police take the body away without informing us? This is receipt we have that a body has been deposited here. We need our body,” elder sister Rebecca Owusu sought.
