A 48-year-old security man with a car company in Accra, last Thursday hanged himself in his kitchen where he was presumed to be preparing food.
Residents of Kaneshie Palace Street, near the Ga Mantse Palace where he lived, were dumbfounded at the man’s action.
The deceased, Charles Awele Quaye, was said to have committed the act around 4:30 pm on August 19, 2010, when the wife and some family members thought he was inside the kitchen preparing their evening meal as he often did.
According to Madam Christabel Sackey, his wife with whom he has three children, when she entered the kitchen to find out what the husband was preparing for the family, she was shocked to see him hanging on the ceiling.
“I thought he was preparing food inside the kitchen and so I entered only to find my darling husband hanging on a linen rope in the kitchen,” she stated.
The Kaneshie Divisional Crime Officer, DSP Dogbevia K. Wonder, who lead a team of police personnel to the scene, narrated to DAILY GUIDE that Christabel Sackey reported the matter to the police around 5pm, on August 19, 2010.
“The police then proceeded to the scene and saw the 48-year-old man hanged on a linen rope in their kitchen.”
He said the body has since been deposited at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital for autopsy.
Meanwhile, the police, according to the Divisional Crime Officer, do not suspect any foul play until an autopsy report proves otherwise.
