A 42-year-old car sprayer, Albert Sam, popularly known as Kwame Sam, has reportedly been killed, with his body abandoned in Winneba by alleged car dealers from whom he purchased a vehicle in Accra.
The deceased, a native of Gomoa Potsin in the Gomoa East District of the Central Region, was working in Cape Coast. Family members said he left Cape Coast on Friday to buy a car he had been tracking but never returned.
In an interview with Adom News, the deceased’s uncle, Charles Odoom, also known as Kofi 2, said Albert Sam had informed friends that he had received the car and was driving back to Cape Coast, but he never made it home.
Mr Odoom has appealed to the Central Regional and Winneba Divisional Police Command to urgently investigate the incident and apprehend the suspected car dealers.
The deceased, who was married with four children, had his body deposited at the Winneba Trauma and Specialist Hospital.
Meanwhile, Samuel Addo, a former classmate of the deceased, also called on the Inspector-General of Police to ensure justice is served.
Authorities have launched an investigation and are working to arrest those responsible for the killing.
