An officer with the Ghana Immigration Service, Stephen King Amoah, has been reported missing under mysterious circumstances since Thursday, July 3, 2025.

A family member revealed his corpse was recovered on July 8 badly burned but his relative assisted police officials in identifying him.

His friend wrote on X: “According to reports, his neck was slashed, his body was burned, and he was then wrapped in a blanket.”

According to report, Amoah left home that evening after receiving a call from a friend who allegedly owed him GHS200,000.

The friend, whose identity has not yet been officially disclosed, reportedly invited him to Ashongman Estates to repay the debt, Ghana Web reported

However, before he left home, Amoah informed his wife about the meeting.

Having gone missing for days with no traces and phone switched off, the friend who allegedly invited Amoah admitted to meeting him and claimed he paid the GHS200,000 to him

Later that evening, his wife, who was away from home, received a message from her husband’s phone indicating he had returned home safely with the money.

Suspicious of the message, she asked Amoah’s brother to check on him at their residence, upon arrival, Amoah was nowhere to be found. The family’s attempts to reach him since then have been unsuccessful.

His friend @Oscarnuwati sadly expressed: “The life of this vibrant young man, filled with dreams and aspirations, has been tragically cut short by the insidious forces of hate, greed, and pure evil. His passion for life and the bright future he envisioned have been extinguished, leaving behind not only a grieving family but also the Arsenal Ghana supporters community that cherished his kindness and spirit.”
