It has emerged that four relatives who were sent to retrieve the body of the “para-athlete” who died in Norway have also absconded after touching down in the European country.

This was disclosed by the president of the National Paralympic Committee, Samson Deen, while speaking on the Asaase Breakfast Show.

The National Paralympic Committee (NPC) has come under strong criticism after some para-athletes who travelled for the Fjordkraft Bergen City Marathon eloped after touching down in Oslo.

A statement from the Ministry of National Security said 11 athletes were supposed to show up for the marathon but failed to even register for the competition.

A member of the contingent was arrested trying to enter Sweden, while the team’s coach, George Gyamfi Gyasi, also died at a hospital after collapsing.
