The trial of Mark Forson, the houseboy accused of murdering Dr. Christopher Adu Boahen, son of the late Professor Albert Adu Boahen, has been adjourned to May 9, 2024, as the Kaneshie District Court did not sit on the scheduled date.

Forson, facing a provisional murder charge, had his plea preserved by the court.

The prosecution's case states that the complainant, a surgeon at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital and friend of the deceased, visited Dr. Christopher Adu Boahen's home on February 11, 2024.

Upon arrival, he noticed an unusual smell and discovered the deceased lying dead on his bed.

Immediately, the complainant reported the incident to the East Legon Police Station. Police investigations revealed the deceased had a rope around his neck, suggesting foul play.

The body was taken to the Police Hospital Morgue for autopsy and preservation.

On March 14, 2024, Mark Forson was arrested in connection with the murder.

Investigations are ongoing as the case progresses.
