Police rescue 30-year-old man allegedly held captive for six days

The reason for the alleged abduction remained unknown A crackdown team from the National Headquarters of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the Central North Police Command on Friday afternoon rescued a 30-year-old man who had allegedly been abducted in Assin Fosu for six days.

The GNA had earlier in the week reported that a desperate family at Assin Fosu was racing against time to save 30-year-old Amoh, who had reportedly been held captive and subjected to brutal physical abuse by suspected kidnappers.

The sources claimed that the victim was abducted on Sunday, September 6, 2026, and had, at the time, spent more than 48 hours in captivity, while his captors repeatedly threatened to kill him unless his family paid a ransom.
