A female mobile money vendor in the central region of Ghana has been robbed and bathed with acid.
The victim of this unfortunate incident has been identified as a 23 year old Kate Aidoo.
Her mobile mobile shop at Gomoa Fetteh in the Gomoa East District was attacked by robbers who poured acid on the face of the lady before running away with an unspecified amount of money.
Kate Aidoo was rushed to the Village of Hope clinic where she was given first aid.
The situation is beyond the level of the clinic so she’s been referred to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra.
Speaking to Adom Fm, the father of the victim said;” I have called for an ambulance, which is yet to arrive, so that I can send my daughter to Korle-Bu as I have been told. Her face is completely destroyed and she is finding it difficult to open her eyes,”
We fear she might loose her sight as a result of the attack.
The robbers who committed the crime have been apprehended and handed over the Police by the townsfolks after a hot chase.
