A taxi driver has recounted his involvement in the gruesome of a pregnant woman by illegal miners known in local parlance as ‘galamseyers’.
He claimed he drove the illegal miners to a location where they buried the pregnant woman alive to help them get more gold.
Though the incident happened in 2022, the taxi driver said he is still being haunted by the incident.
He said three illegal miners in November 2022, hired his taxi from Koforidua to Osino, after making a stop in Sehwi to pick up a priest.
Before the priest joined them, the taxi driver claimed the miners had captured the pregnant woman, tied her up, and rubbed pepper all over her body.
They then dug a hole, placed her inside, and the fetish priest to perform some rituals. They then buried the helpless woman alive.
“They were armed and gave me instructions. The woman was begging for water, but they refused and mercilessly buried her alive,” the driver recounted on Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem Wednesday.
Despite his initial attempts to report the incident to the Police, he claimed the Police advised him to remain silent and leave the matter alone, leaving the taxi driver deeply traumatized by the event.
“After I dropped them, I went to report the incident to the Osino Police station. However, they told me to keep quiet about it and leave. The experience has haunted me so much that I panic every time I see a pregnant woman. I have moved to Accra because I am still scared of the place,” he stated.
