The family of the late Immigration Officer, Stephen King Amoah, has warned of retaliation if any of its members are harmed following judgment in the ongoing murder case.
Police on Friday, August 22, struggled to escort two suspects, Bright Aweh and Thomas Zigah, into custody at the Adabraka District Court. Another suspect has been arrested, while one remains at large.
Speaking to journalists, the deceased’s in-law, Yaw Mensah, accused police of protecting the suspects.
“We will go after the suspects if any of our family members are harmed after judgment is pronounced. We have taken notice of everyone associated with the suspects.
“If the police keep shielding them by collecting money, we will deal with them ourselves,” he said.
In court, counsel for Zigah, also known as Nii Dzaase, requested his client be referred to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, arguing that treatment at the Police Hospital had been ineffective. Prosecutors objected, saying the Police Hospital was adequately equipped.
“The judge instructed the defence to file a formal application if they insisted on the transfer.
The case was adjourned to September 4, 2025, for further investigations.
