An eyewitness Asare Boadi narrated that” I have a kiosk at the Abinchi market where they sell coconut. I was alarmed when I saw people running from that direction. So I got close and asked only to find out that someone had dropped a dead baby into the Subin River. The Dagombas who deal in scraps here saw the wrapped object when they stepped into the water to scoop up metal scraps.

“One of them brought up the object in his curiosity and unwrapped it. His screams drew the people to the place. I personally called the police to convey the body to the mortuary. The umbilical cord of the baby looks like that of a baby which had just been born probably a few hours after it was damped there.”
