More details have emerged in the murder case at Beach Drive Estate, Tuba, near Weija, involving the killing of a 54-year-old car dealer, Mohammed Rahman.

According to a Crime Check TV report published on August 28, 2026, two suspects standing trial in connection with the murder allegedly used a gun they had stolen from the home of former Ghana international footballer Asamoah Gyan to kill the car dealer.

The two suspects, Adams Adder Almeida and his brother, Bala Bilyon, were arrested in connection with the August 6, 2026, shooting and are currently standing trial.

However, the two brothers are also standing trial in a separate case before a Circuit Court over an alleged robbery at Asamoah Gyan’s residence.

According to the report, the suspects allegedly robbed the former footballer’s house at gunpoint and made away with a pistol, jewellery and other valuables. The same pistol is alleged to have been used in the shooting of Mohammed Rahman.

The victim, 54-year-old Mohammed Rahman, died after he was shot, while his wife, 53-year-old Christiana Fosu, also sustained gunshot wounds and was rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Police said Adams allegedly admitted during interrogation to shooting the couple.

According to the police, he claimed he was motivated by repeated comments allegedly made by Rahman, who he said described him as “lazy and useless.”

“According to the suspect, he was motivated by his perception that the deceased had repeatedly described him as lazy and useless, which he claimed had affected him mentally,” the police said.

Police further said Adams led investigators to a room at Tuba, where a pistol believed to have been used in the shooting was found beneath a wardrobe belonging to his brother, Bala.

Bala, who police said worked with the deceased, was subsequently arrested as investigations continued.

Police also said Adams claimed the pistol had been given to him by a friend identified only as Gideon, who is also reported to be on trial in Asamoah Gyan’s residence robbery case.

The two suspects are facing separate proceedings in connection with the alleged robbery at Asamoah Gyan’s residence and the murder of Mohammed Rahman, as investigations into the case continue.
