The discovery has raised concern among residents, who say the deceased is not known to anyone in the community.

Speaking on the incident, the Assemblyman for the area, Hon. Evans Opoku, disclosed that the man had no known ties to Abuakwa Manhyia.

According to him, residents trooped to the scene after news of the body spread, but none could identify him or provide details about his background.

The body was said to be in an advanced state of decomposition when it was discovered, making identification difficult. Because of the condition and to prevent any health hazards, the police and environmental health officers quickly moved in and buried the remains.

The burial was carried out without delay since no family member or relative had come forward.
