Akyem Osenase community in the Eastern Region has been struck by tragedy following the mysterious deaths of over 22 people.
Reports indicate that the deaths occurred within a month after the deceased allegedly consumed stolen pregnant goats.
According to Nkawkaw-based Agoo FM, the suspects sold the stolen goats to a drinking bar operator who used them to prepare pepper soup. Subsequently, about 22 customers who consumed the soup fell ill and died within a short period.
The exact cause of death is unknown, but traditional leaders in the area have attributed the strange deaths to a curse.
The suspects have confessed to the crime and identified the deceased as those who consumed the stolen goats.
Efforts are now underway to reverse the curse to prevent further deaths.
