Two children declared missing in Accra on Sunday were found dead in an abandoned Mazda car at Nima, late Monday in a suspicious manner. They were lying side by side on the back seat. Blood was oozing from their mouths with cuts on their necks and other parts of their bodies.
The cause of the death of David Ahwereng, 4, and Ebenezer Amartey, 5, has not yet been established but their parents suspect foul play. The children who were playmates, went missing after Sunday’s church service at 12.30 pm.
On Monday, the residents smelled something unusual from the abandoned car. They therefore opened one of its door to find out what was causing that stench only to see the lifeless bodies of the children.
Mrs Margaret Ahwereng, David’s mother said that the last time he saw him was at 12.30 pm after they closed from church. She said when she found that the playmates were not at each other’s home, she and Ebenezer’s mother reported the case to the Nima Police.
According to the residents, the vehicle had been parked at the place for the past eight months and children of the area used to play in it. They were surprised that nobody noticed the children in the car earlier although the area was frequented by people, some of whom prayed in a mosque within the same building where the car is parked.
