The body, chanced upon by a farmer, with a foamy mouth was in a supine position with the legs wide open, and her torn panties and slippers lying nearby.

Her death brings to about 36, the official number of such murders of women in Accra. A watchman at the Civil Aviation installation close to the spot where it was discovered, Mallam Sumaila, said the farmer reported the incident to him at about 7 am and he, in turn, informed the police.

The police, after preliminary investigations, sent the body to the Police Hospital Mortuary.
