TWO GUNMEN have broken into a locked
hotel room and shot dead a woman at close range without any justification.
A man, believed to be the fiancé of the lady, was also shot by the
hoodlums but fortunately he was able to survive.
After committing the heinous crime, the two gunmen quickly fled
the scene to escape arrest.
What influenced them to kill the woman (name not known) in that
bizarre manner still remains a ‘mystery’. But the swift manner in which the
gunmen shot the lady dead has sparked suspicion that it may be contract
killing.
According to reports, the lady and her fiancé checked into the
hotel located at Danyame in Kumasi on Thursday, January 2, 2020. And they were
said to be relaxing peacefully in their room.
From nowhere, the two gunmen reportedly broke into their room and
started spraying bullets at the hapless woman. Having been shot several times
at close range, she immediately gave up the ghost.
Fortunately for the man, even though he was also shot by the
runaway goons, he survived the scary attack.
The sound of the gunshots attracted scores of people to the scene
but by the time they arrived, the killers had fled.
The body of the lady had been deposited at the morgue of the Komfo
Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) for autopsy. The man, who was said to be in
critical condition, is responding to treatment at the same medical facility.
Meanwhile, the police are said to have initiated investigations to help arrest the culprits to face the law.
