A 76-year-old woman has been burnt to death in a fire outbreak in Komenda in the Central Region.
The charred body of the woman was recovered by the Ghana National Fire Service after extinguishing a fire at the premises of Zion Prayer Ministry.
Komenda District Commander DOIII Jacob Krakue, disclosed that his outfit received a distress call of the fire incident near the Zion Prayer Ministry.
In view of this, Komenda firefighters got to the scene and immediately prevented the fire from spreading to other rooms, especially the nearby room that foam mattresses were stored.
He added that upon arrival, they were informed about one person trapped in the fire, so they forced their way into the burning room and brought out the person who was already burnt beyond recognition.
The charred body was retrieved from the scene and deposited at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital.
