Miami man charged after shooting lover who knocked on door as he was with stripper

On a spring night inside a luxury Brickell condo, an internet entrepreneur named Haider Rana was watching TV with an exotic dancer after a day of hanging out at the pool. They heard a knock. Rana grabbed his pistol and went to the front door.
Seconds later, there was a gunshot. Someone fell to the ground in the doorway, mortally wounded.
But that person was no intruder, Miami-Dade prosecutors say. Instead, on the night of May 6, 2021, Rana fatally shot 25-year-old Maame Amuah, an unarmed woman who lived across the street and had been in a romantic relationship with him, according to investigators.
Miami-Dade prosecutors have now charged Rana, 24, with second-degree murder with a firearm, rejecting a self-defense claim — he told detectives that an unknown person, crouched down and hiding from the peephole, “pushed the door open.” Amuah, the investigation revealed, had been calling Rana all day and wanted to hang out with him that evening, according to an arrest warrant.
