The family of the Palestinian refugee Mahran Baajour has appealed for his release from captivity in Ghana accusing the Ghanaian authorities of kidnapping him three months ago.
The family called on the media in a statement on Monday to cover a sit-in on Tuesday in Beirut to reveal the fate of Baajour who was kidnapped in the authorities in Ghana.
“At the end of last year the authorities of the state of Ghana kidnapped and hid businessman Mahran Mustafa Baajour a Palestinian refugee residing in Lebanon” the statement read.
It added that all efforts by his family and friends failed to reveal his fate.
“We the family of Mahran and his friends hold the Government of the State of Ghana directly responsible for the disappearance of Mahran.
The statement identified the refugee as Mahran Mostafa Baajour who was born in 1980 in Tripoli Lebanon and who is a businessman.
It said that the Ghanaian authorities kidnapped him on 13/12/2018 refusing to recognize his existence despite all the evidences that were provided by his lawyers.
Ghana’s media have spoken of his kidnapping and asked authorities on his whereabouts but the authorities ignored the calls.
