The body of an adult male has been retrieved from the Densu River at Tetegu near Weija in the Ga South Municipality of the Greater Accra Region.
According to Citi News, the discovery was made by fishermen during a routine fishing expedition on the river.
Although the identity of the deceased is yet to be established, a resident of the area, Dr Samuel Agyei, reported that the man appeared to be in his late 30s and was not known within the community.
The police have since conveyed the body to a morgue for preservation and further investigations into the circumstances surrounding the death.
The incident comes just days after the Municipal Chief Executive for Awutu Senya East, Seth Sabah Serwonoo-Banini, announced that two people; an adult and a child had drowned in a tributary of the Densu River near Nurses Quarters Junction on the Kasoa–Obom Road on Wednesday, June 10.
Authorities are yet to determine whether the cases are connected, as investigations continue.
