On February 3, Ruth, a community health nurse had closed from her work and on her way to her house only for her to be attacked and killed.
After helping to save a countless number of lives throughout her nursing career, Ruth would be murdered just a few meters away from her home in Ayuom in the Bosomtwe District of the Ashanti Region.
Ruth, a mother of three, was found dead in the early hours of Tuesday, February 4.
According to media reports, an eyewitness reportedly said Ruth’s “lifeless body was discovered close to where she stays. You could also see marks of assault on parts of her body suggesting that the deceased may have struggled with her assailants.”
However, this narrative has been disputed by a relative who insists when the deceased was found, there were no signs of struggle, myjoyonline reports.
“There was no mark, there was nothing like a knife, nothing of that sort was found. She was just lying here,” he said.
What he did note was that her underwear had been pulled down, suggesting she had been raped before being killed.
Her colleagues, including the Community Health Nurse Association, after the news of her death, took to social media with the hashtag #Justice4RuthEshun to condemn the act meted out to the public servant while demanding the perpetrators be brought to face the law.
