People of Agbozume in tlhe Ketu South Municipality of the Volta Region were thrown into a state of shock when they discovered an abandoned dead body on Saturday morning.
The body of a young man, suspected to be in his early 40s, was found in a stagnant lake at a community called Gbewordokorpe, about a kilometer from the Agbozume Market.
The community folks who woke up to the sad news at the early hours of Saturday, 14th December, 2019 were very astonished and attributed it to murder.
They assumed that, the man was either killed elsewhere and dropped there for ritual purposes or was drunk and drowned.
The young man is yet to be identified or traced to any relations of his.
