Safina Mohammed has been charged with the murder of her boyfriend, Frank Osei
An Accra High Court has issued a warrant for the arrest of a 23-year-old student of the University of Ghana, Safina Mohammed, otherwise known as Safina Diamond, who has been charged with the murder of her boyfriend, Frank Osei, a Ghanaian resident in Canada.
According to a post shared on the X page of GhOne TV on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, Safina, who has pleaded not guilty to the murder of her boyfriend, failed to appear in court alongside her legal team.
This absence led to the court issuing a bench warrant for her arrest.
“Safina Mohammed, alias Safina Diamond, who has pleaded not guilty to the murder of one Frank Osei, her Ghanaian boyfriend resident in Canada, is on bail.
“In court today, when the case was called, the accused and her lawyers were absent. Justice Lydia Osei Marfo of the Court of Appeal has issued a bench warrant for her arrest,” it stated.
On Sunday, July 24, 2022, Frank Osei, who was on vacation in Ghana, visited Safina, his fiancée, at her residence in Ashaley Botwe School Junction, and decided to spend the night with her.
That night, Safina, along with accomplices yet to be arrested, allegedly stabbed Osei with a knife and strangled him.
The prosecution alleged that Safina and her accomplices cleaned up the blood from the floor while Osei’s body remained in the room for 24 hours.
They claimed the body was dragged from the first floor of the building through the staircase and dumped at the gate of the house, where Osei had parked his Toyota Tundra.
Safina allegedly called the police, claiming that her boyfriend had died in her room. Upon arrival, law enforcement found Osei’s body lying at the gate of Safina’s house, leading to her arrest.
