The deceased, Priscilla Tsegah, had lodged in the hotel for two days.

The footage also showed that she locked the room door and took the key along with her making it difficult for the hotel’s staff to enter.

Natashia didn’t act like she was under pressure or did anything suspicious to catch the attention of the hotel staff who watched her leave their premises.
