From Moses Dotsey Aklorbortu, Sekondi

A teenager, Anthony Amihere, is helping the police to unravel the cause of the death of his girlfriend at Himan in the Prestea Huni-Valley District of the Western Region.
The girl, Faustina Maame Abena, who is alleged to have run away from school to visit Amihere was said to have complained of stomach ache at about 2 a.m. whilst in bed with her 19-year-old boyfriend.
According to the Regional Public Relations Officer, Ms Olivia Adiku, Amihere rushed her to the Himan Health Centre but was later referred to the Prestea Government Hospital, where she was pronounced dead shortly on arrival.
The PRO said Amihere then reported to the police the next day and was accompanied to the house where the police retrieved two pairs of school uniform, a pair of sandals, a purse, pants and brazier belonging to the deceased.
Ms Adiku said the body had been deposited at the Government hospital at Tarkwa.
The PRO said the girl was a student of the Komfo Anokye Senior High School in Kumasi and left school last Thursday to visit Amihere at Himan.
She said the 18-year-old girl arrived safely and was welcomed by Amihere into his house, but while in bed the girl complained of stomach ache and was rushed to the health centre.
The PRO said Amihere was currently in police custody to help in investigations.
