Manager of the guest house Dennis Boateng told police investigators that on Sunday at about 9:40am, the suspect and the victim booked a room and then went inside.

He said at about 11:20am, he heard an unusual room from the room and suddenly Beatrice rushed out to the corridor half-naked and complained of heartache, and he could see foam gushing out of the mouth and nose.

Dennis further told the police that in attempt to look for a vehicle to convey her to the hospital, she passed away at the corridor. Police visited the scene and found Beatrice lying on her left side with a piece of cloth around her waist.
