The Ghana Police Service has arrested two persons in connection with the disappearance of an Accra-based couple, Dr Jesse Amuah and Mrs Elizabeth Esi Amuah, as investigations intensify into the troubling case.
According to police sources, the arrests were carried out by officers from the Missing Persons Unit following weeks of investigations into the couple’s unexplained absence.
The case was formally reported to the police on April 22, 2026, nearly a month after the couple was last seen on March 23, 2026. The complainant indicated that all attempts to reach the couple had failed, raising alarm over their whereabouts.
Further checks at their residence revealed disturbing signs — the house was found locked, while their vehicle, a Nissan Sunny with registration number GX 159-X, was missing from the premises.
In response, the Police swiftly assembled a joint investigative team comprising personnel from the Missing Persons Unit, the Anti-Armed Robbery Unit, and the Crime Scene Management Team to unravel the mystery.
The team subsequently visited the couple’s residence and pursued several leads, culminating in the arrest of two suspects whose identities have been withheld for operational reasons.
Police say the suspects are currently assisting with investigations as authorities ramp up efforts to locate the missing couple.
The development has heightened public concern, with many questioning the circumstances surrounding the couple’s disappearance and the delay in reporting the case.
Meanwhile, the Police have appealed to the general public to volunteer any credible information that could aid in tracing the couple.
“Anyone with relevant information on the whereabouts of Dr and Mrs Amuah is urged to report to the nearest police station for immediate action,” a police statement said.
