Canadian murder case adjourned to Feb. 27

An Accra High Court has adjourned the case of Sa­fina Mohammed Adizatu, accused of murdering her Canadi­an boyfriend, to February 27, 2025.

The delay is due to the court awaiting directives from the Chief Justice regarding the empaneling of a seven-member jury.

Safina, also known as Safina Diamond, a student, has denied the charge of murder and is cur­rently on bail.

The prosecution’s case states that on July 24, 2022, Frank Kofi Osei, a Ghanaian resident in Can­ada, visited Safina at her residence in Ashalley Botwe School Junction, where they spent the night.

Safina and her accomplic­es allegedly stabbed Osei and strangled him. Afterward, they cleaned up the blood, left the body in the room for 24 hours, and later dragged it downstairs to the gate, where they placed it near his vehicle.

Sana then contacted the police, claiming that her boyfriend had died in her room.

When the police arrived, they found Osei’s body outside her house.

Safina was arrested and is un­dergoing investigations.
