He said an elderly woman who lost her two sons and was living alone had been murdered by unknown assailants.
She could not be traced and a search for her led to the discovery of her decapitated body in the lavatory of her residence.
Organs removed from her body were genitalia, breasts, tongue, and eyes.
The assailants had obviously monitored their victim, and armed with the knowledge she lived alone, they knew it was possible to attack the almost defenseless widow. It is important to note that these marauding, cruel killers hang in the communities looking for prey.
If you are fond of leaving young children all alone in some places, know that bloodthirsty souls are on the prowl for soft targets. Recently, a boy in his preteens who was playing around his father, strayed a bit but never returned. He was found dead with his tongue removed.
Video evidence that a curious member of society produced, showed the dead body being thrown out of a vehicle that belonged to a neighbor.
Suspected ritual murders are briskly being undertaken in Ghana as serial cases are coming up every now and then. Women who are in the habit of walking alone in the dark, especially in rural areas and on foot from one town to another at night, are at greater risk.
To contain the silent brutalities, the following alerts might prove useful. A combination of community sensitization activities, the formation of community watchdog committees, increased police patrols, and revisiting the almost discarded communal way of life of the Ghanaian where each is their brother’s keeper in the vicinity they live on a diurnal basis, may expose the vampires or nib their activities in the bud.
