Police in the Ejisu Municipality of Ashanti Region has commenced an investigation into circumstances that led to the drowning of two little children in a concrete water tank.
The lifeless bodies of Lukeman and Blessing, who are 4 and 2 years old respectively were found floating in the water tank meant for construction at Anwomaso-Domeabra.
According to Myjoyonline.com, the youngsters got missing in the early hours of Thursday, after they had been seen playing on the said construction site.
A Unit Committee member of the area, Seth Boakye Dankwah is reported as saying that they had searched for the children but could not find them, so they suspected they might have been kidnapped.
“It was a hawker who was going about her trade who found the two dead bodies floating in the water tank on the construction site, located two blocks from their compound,” Dankwah is quoted as having said.
While the corpses of the children have been deposited at the Emena Hospital for preservation and autopsy, police have invited the owner of the building under construction where the corpses were found to assist in investigations.
They have also invited the parents of the deceased and Assembly Members in relation to the sad incident.
