George Agyenim Boateng, whose sister a 24-year-old KNUST graduate, Lois Abena Koranteng died mysteriously in Takoradi during a business trip, has accused the Ghana Police Service of dishonesty and inconsistency regarding the autopsy report on his sister.
Mr Boateng, through a series of Facebook posts, has raised serious concerns about the accuracy of the autopsy findings.
He claimed that while the police stated the autopsy was performed on June 8, 2024, the same day Koranteng died, his own investigation reveals it was actually conducted on June 11, 2024, four days later.
Additionally, Boateng disputes the police’s statement that there were no blood stains on his sister’s body when it was retrieved from the hotel pool.
He contends that he has evidence that challenges this claim and is calling for a reassessment of the police’s handling of the case.
The following are the ‘lies’ listed by the deceased’s brother against the Ghana Police Service;
1. Ghana Police Service, why did you choose to lie to Ghanaians in fact the whole world that you did the autopsy on 8th June which means the same day Lois was found dead in the pool, meanwhile it was done on 11th June 2024. Can you come out and explain to Ghanaians?
2. Why did you also lie that there were no blood stains found on Lois when she was found dead in the pool? I have pictures to prove.
Can you come out and explain if the “reddish liquid” which was from her nose was palm oil or cloth die.
3. Before and after your “planned” visit to the family just to cover the shame of your dilettante efforts concerning Lois mysterious death you have never called, emailed or texted the family of any assurance or briefed us about your investigation you claim you are doing.
4. Should I tell Ghanaians that your “cyber or IT gurus policemen have failed to unlock Lois phone till date?
5. Tell Ghanaians the relationship you have with Icon Energy .
