The Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital and the Greater Accra Regional Police Commander are to meet to unravel the mysterious death of a 27-year-old Junior Doctor, Desmond Kabah, on Monday, May 28 in his room.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in Accra on Tuesday, Mr Mustapha Salifu, Public Relations Officer of the Hospital, said the meeting would discuss security matters among other issues.
Prior to the meeting, junior doctors of the hospital presented a petition to management, demanding a 24-hour security protection at their flats and various parts of the facility.
They said the death of their colleague had caused fear and panic among those who reside on the hospital premises.
Dr. Kabah was found dead in his flat at the hospital; his naked body was found on his bed, with stabbed wounds and portions of the flesh on his leg slashed off.
The Greater Accra Regional Police Public Relations Officer, Deputy Superintendent of Police Freeman Tetteh, said the police were investigating the tragedy and also waiting for autopsy report to determine whether it was a murder or otherwise.
“So far no arrests have since been made. We have intensified security at the hospital,” he said.**
