The incident that occurred in the early hours of the morning, attracted a mammoth crowd from the area and other neighbourhoods who rushed to the scene to see what had happened.
The woman, in her 30s was found lying naked in front of the residence of a medical personnel, Mbapi Harriette, who works at the Buea Regional Hospital. When this reporter approached the scene, the feminine figure that was lying on the ground appeared very gory.
Apparently, the assailants might have carefully lacerated the breasts such that it appears as if they were amputated by a medic.
Makochi Beatrice, a woman who runs a restaurant business very close to the scene, narrated to BareataNews that she arrived her business
place and saw the woman lying by the road but mistook her for a mad woman who regularly roams the Sandpit Street.
“When I arrived at my business place, this morning and saw the
woman lying here by the road, I thought she is a mad girl who regularly comes here and disturbs us. I didn’t even know that it was a differ rent person with an injury.
When I moved closer, I discovered that the woman had deep wounds on her chest. I immediately ran and called my neighbour who is a nurse. She too came, pulled off the veil covering the woman and she shouted that the woman’s breasts have been cut off.
Given that she was already prepared to go to work, she opened her bag and removed her gloves, opened the veil and we saw that the woman’s breast had been freshly cut off. The population also started coming around. At this point, we called the Rapid Intervention Brigade who came and carried the woman to the General Hospital,” Beatrice narrated.
When asked if the woman could speak, Makochi was affirmative,
saying that the woman uttered some words when she was being carried into the police vehicle.
