Special Prosecutor declares Ken Ofori-Atta wanted in high-profile corruption investigation
At a press briefing on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng stated that Ofori-Atta is now a fugitive of justice and must return to Ghana immediately to face questioning.
The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has declared former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta wanted in ongoing investigations into high-profile corruption cases.
At a press briefing on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng stated that Ofori-Atta is now a fugitive of justice and must return to Ghana immediately to face questioning.
He warned that failure to comply would result in steps being taken to compel his return.
Dismissing claims that Ofori-Atta had left the country for medical treatment, Agyebeng insisted that the former minister must cooperate with the ongoing investigations.
He also refuted reports suggesting that officials from the OSP had raided Ofori-Atta’s residence on Tuesday, February 11.
Instead, Agyebeng alleged that the raid was staged by the former minister himself to mislead the public and discredit the OSP’s investigations.
The OSP’s latest move marks a significant development in the fight against corruption, as the office intensifies efforts to hold public officials accountable for alleged financial misconduct.
