News reports that the suspect, Stephen Enyan, was arrested after a
tip-off that he had been in the business of selling blood to a group of
ritualists known as ‘Sakawa Boys’.’
According
to the reports, many of the pregnant women who visit the hospital for
ante-natal checks usually lost their babies or in some cases, their
lives due to the activities of Enyan.
The
frequency with which the loss of lives occurred led to numerous
complaints being lodged to the hospital management which launched a
discreet investigation into the matter.
They
also involved operatives of the Abura Dunkwa District Police who
launched a further probe into the matter, leading to the arrest of the
suspect.
During
the investigations, all fingers pointed at Enyan and it was revealed
that he was the major culprit in the sale of the blood of pregnant women
who visited the hospital to the ritualists after one policeman posed as
one of his customers.
In
a WhatsApp conversation between the undercover officer and Enyan, the
policeman agreed to pay GH¢10,000 for the blood of a pregnant woman and
offered GH¢250 as part payment.
The
lab technician was later arrested when he went to meet the officer to
collect his balance. It is believed that the suspect sold the blood for
amounts ranging from GH¢5,000 to GH¢10,000.
