The High Court in Accra has directed the Ghana Police Service to hand over all relevant information on a BMW 740D linked to the National Signals Bureau (NSB) trial—but dismissed other disclosure requests from the defence team as either irrelevant or already addressed.
The ruling came after Mr. Samuel Atta Akyea, lawyer for first and second accused Kwabena Adu-Boahen and Angela Adjei-Boateng, sought further disclosures. His motion requested documents such as the bill of lading, port of entry records, and the police docket related to the importation of the said BMW vehicle.
Akyea argued that these documents were essential to counter the prosecution’s claim that Adu-Boahen had imported a stolen car. He said such records were key to “correcting an unfortunate narrative” being built around his client.
However, Deputy Attorney General Dr. Justice Srem-Sai opposed the motion, stating that the documents were not in the prosecution’s possession. He noted that Adu-Boahen himself was listed as both importer and exporter in the customs declaration, making the bill of lading redundant.
Justice John Eugene Nyante Nyadu, who presided over the hearing, agreed that most of the requests—specifically the bill of lading and port clearance details—had already been addressed in previous prosecution disclosures.
But in response to the unresolved issue of the police docket, the judge ruled:
“This court orders the Ghana Police Service to directly provide all relevant information in their possession concerning the BMW 740D with chassis number J020CM11428 to the defence team.”
The case is expected to resume on July 31, 2025, for the hearing of another motion.
