The Oyibi District Police Command has launched a manhunt for one Wisdom Tetteh in connection with the disappearance of 27-year-old Theophilus Ashitey Amarh.

On 7 April 2026, a report was made to the Police that the victim had gone out on 6 April 2026 with the intention of selling his Hyundai Elantra saloon car after being introduced to a prospective buyer by the suspect, but failed to return home.

Preliminary investigations revealed that the victim was last seen at the residence of the suspect at Saasabi after being invited there to meet the said buyer.

Subsequent police intelligence led to a revisit of the suspect’s residence on 10 April 2026, where suspected bloodstains were found within the room, indicating possible foul play.

The scene has since been processed by the National Crime Scene Management Team with support from the Anti-Armed Robbery Unit of the CID Headquarters. A search operation involving community members and local authorities has also been conducted within the area, but the victim has yet to be found.

Intelligence further indicates that the suspect has fled the country to neighbouring Togo. Efforts are underway, including the initiation of INTERPOL processes, to track and arrest him.

The Accra Regional Police Command assures the public that all necessary measures are being taken to apprehend the suspect and unravel the circumstances surrounding the disappearance.

The Command has urged anyone with information on the whereabouts of the suspect or the missing person to report to the nearest police station to assist ongoing investigations.
