The statement continued that on inspection, no marks of assault were found on any of the bodies of the children. Their mouths and nostrils, according to the statement, however, were foamy. The police reportedly did not waste time as they immediately conveyed the bodies of the children after investigating the scene and gathering relevant details, to the Police Morgue in Accra for autopsy and further investigation.

Abigail, according to the police was immediately arrested and sent away to be detained in police custody to assist with investigation into what might have led to the death of the 2-year-old and the 8-month-year-old respectively.

She is said to have mentioned that the GH¢20 weekly up-keep money her husband gives her is inadequate and therefore could not cater for them.
