Family members of a deceased believed to be 50 years old from Gomoa Toboase are in a state of shock after finding out that their dead body has been missing at Adoko Funeral Home and Mortuary located at Gomoa Akotsi in the Gomoa East District of Central Region.

According to the family, they deposited the body of their family member at the morgue only to discover that it was a different body whiles the final funeral rites was ongoing.

In an interview with Soireenews, some of the angry family members revealed that after the body was put into a coffin they realised it wasn't theirs. They then brought it back to the morgue and upon waiting, it came to their amazement that their father's body has gone missing in the mortuary.

Some of the members have threatened to set the funeral Home Ablaze if they failed to give them their body.

Meanwhile, Samuel Okai, Senior brother of the late Kofi Larbie said, the matter has been reported to the police and they are calling on the government to come to their aid since this is not the first time a dead body has been missing.
