A Ghanaian female police officer, Constable Sarah Adjei reportedly left behind a touching suicide note after committing suicide
due to debt.
The woman, who worked at the Quarter Master Stores at Nkawkaw Divisional Police Headquarters was found dead on Saturday August 7, after checking into a room at Misiho Hotel which is located at Akwasiho.
Manager of the hotel told the police that he found the policewoman dead in a prone position on the floor while carrying out a routine check on guests around 7pm.
The policewoman who had a swollen right cheek, was also oozing blood from her nostrils. A suicide note where she blamed one Mr. Timothy Dampare for her death was found in a bag in the room.
She said the man who promised to pay off some of the people she was owing, reneged on the promise.
The suicide note read; “Dear Mr. Timothy Dampare, I told you that I owed people money and you decided to help me, and you have been with me in my house for one week now and you have refused to help me, so if anything happens you have caused it Mr. Timothy Dampare. Thank you.”
According to TV3, spokesperson of the Eastern Regional Police Command, DSP Ebenezer Tetteh disclosed in a press release that investigation into the case has been launched.
The hotel manager and Timothy Dampare have also been arrested. They are expected to assist in police investigations.
Body of the deceased has since been deposited at Nkawkaw Holy Family Hospital awaiting autopsy.
