The family of the late Stephen King Amoah, a 38-year-old officer with the Ghana Immigration Service, is calling on the Ghana Police Service to expedite investigations and ensure justice is served following his tragic death.
Amoah was last seen on July 3, after leaving home to meet a friend at Ashongman Estate who had reportedly called to repay a debt. He never returned. Five days later, his partly burnt body was discovered at Abuom Junction near Kwabenya in the Greater Accra Region, after he had been declared missing.
According to the family, a key suspect, identified as Bright Aweh has been arrested. Investigators believe Aweh was the last person in contact with Amoah and allegedly lured him to the meeting where he disappeared.
The late officer leaves behind a wife and a four-year-old son.
In an exclusive interview with Citi News on Thursday, July 10, Amoah’s nephew, Osei Mensah Lucky-Dan who lived with him shared updates on the case. He revealed that the matter has been adjourned to July 23, 2025, at the Kwabenya Circuit Court.
“The court has adjourned the case to July 23, so we will be at the Kwabenya Circuit Court to plead for justice for my late uncle,” he said. “My uncle had no issues with anyone. He was jovial and easy to love someone who brought joy to everyone he met.”
The family has urged authorities to pursue the case with urgency and ensure that those responsible are held accountable.
