An Accra High Court has postponed the case of Safina Mohammed Adizatu, accused of murdering her Canadian boyfriend, to February 27, 2025.
The adjournment follows the court’s wait for directives from the Chief Justice on empaneling a seven-member jury.
Safina, also known as Safina Diamond, a student, has pleaded not guilty to the murder charge and remains on bail.
According to the prosecution, on July 24, 2022, Frank Kofi Osei, a Ghanaian resident in Canada, visited Safina at her home in Ashalley Botwe School Junction, where they spent the night.
Safina and her alleged accomplices reportedly stabbed and strangled Osei, cleaned up the blood, and left his body in the room for 24 hours before dragging it outside near his vehicle.
She later called the police, claiming her boyfriend had died in her room. Upon arrival, officers found Osei’s body outside the house.
Safina was subsequently arrested, and investigations are ongoing.
