KEN OFORI-ATTA HAS NOT PROVIDED ANY MEDICAL REPORT TO JUSTIFY HEALTH CONDITIONS
Kissi Agyebeng, the Special Prosecutor, disclosed that the former Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta, has failed to submit any medical documentation to substantiate his health issues.
According to Kissi Agyebeng, from January 24 till now, Mr Ofori-Atta has not produced any medical report.
Speaking to the media on Monday, June 2, Kissi Agyebeng stated, “From January 24 till now, Mr Ofori-Atta has not produced any medical report. From March to May. He said he was going to have a surgical operation in March… After accommodating him, he never bothered to tell OSP that there had been a fundamental change in your condition.
“Therefore, the OSP views Mr Ofori-Atta’s lawyers’ letter dated 28 May 2025 as an expression of utter bad faith on the part of Mr Ofori-Atta, and it confirms our long-held well-considered opinion and conclusion that Mr Ofori-Atta has no intention of voluntarily returning to the jurisdiction and to attend the OSP,” he said.
The Special Prosecutor further rejected Ken Ofori-Atta’s request for a virtual session.
According to Kissi Agyebeng, Ken Ofori-Atta must present himself physically to the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
Kissi Agyebeng added, “This office has always requested his attendance, and we have indicated clearly to him that we are unwilling to waive it. If we were amenable to taking any statement from Ken Ofori-Atta in absentia, we would have done so in February, and not waited till June 2, 2025.
“We want him here physically, and we insist on it. A suspect in a criminal investigation does not pick and choose how the investigative body conducts its investigations and the methods suitable to him and his convenience. We will not countenance this conduct, not in this case”, he revealed.
