Owner and doctor in charge of the Advanced Body Sculpt Centre known as Obengfo Hospital has been charged with murder by an Accra Magistrate Court.
Dr Dominic Obeng Andoh has been remanded in custody for his role in the mysterious death of Stacy Offei Darko whom until her untimely death was the deputy CEO of National Entrepreneurship Innovative Programme (NEIP).
According to the family, the body of the deceased was deposited at the morgue within four hours after her death and was informed about the incident three days later.
This development infuriated the family and friends of the deceased leading to the arrest of Dr Obeng Andoh.
In 2013, Joy News conducted an in-depth investigation into the activities of the Obengfo Hospital and it was discovered that Dr Andoh had only two weeks training in plastic surgery in Florida in the USA.

The centre was shut down by the Medical and Dental Council which cautioned the public to stay away from the Obengfo Hospital only to be reopened weeks later.
According to Joy News’ Matilda Wemegah, Dr Andoh came to the court on Tuesday in the company of doctors from the Police Hospital.
The police told the court the suspect has been receiving medical treatment since last week Thursday after he was arrested.
Dr Obeng Andoh who is the first accused has been formally charged with murder contrary to section 46 of the criminal offences Act.
