An 18-year-old JHS 3 student, known as Paa Kwabena, has committed suicide at Assin Akropong in the Assin Central District of the Central Region.

He was found hanging with a sponge tied to his neck from the window rod of his house around Saturday Evening.

It is not known what caused the young man to commit suicide.

Speaking to Kasapa FM News Yaw Boagyan, sister of the deceased, Afia Tinkoranmaa who was shocked by her brother’s death said the deceased, prior to taking his life showed no signs of worry.
