There’s no record of threats on the life of the Special Prosecutor—Interior Ministry

Ghana’s Interior Ministry has disclosed that the Special Prosecutor did not report any attempt on his life to the police or any security agencies in the country.

According to a statement from the ministry, the special prosecutor, when contacted on the matter, disclosed that the attempts were in the past and not this year.

The minister has therefore ordered a probe into the threats on his life and other allegations made by the Director of Strategy and Communications at the Office of the Special Prosecutor.

The statement said, “Initial contacts with Mr Kissi Agyebeng have revealed that the assassination attempts on him, as claimed, happened before this year.

There is no record or report of such threats against his life at any police station or at any of the state security agencies in the country.”

Adding that “Since crime does not expire, the Ministry has ordered a full-scale investigation into the claim of assassination attempts.

The Ministry has also ordered an investigation into the claim by Mr Samuel Appiah Darko that he was handcuffed and beaten by 17 police personnel”.
