Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine, has issued a stern warning to banks against processing any transfers or withdrawals from the accounts of Kwabena Adu-Boahene, the former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), who is under investigation for financial misconduct.
Adu-Boahene, arrested on March 21 at Kotoka International Airport, is accused of diverting $7 million meant for a cyber defense system contract into his private accounts.
Investigations have also uncovered multiple companies registered under his name and that of his wife, many linked to Advantage Solutions.
Dr. Ayine cautioned that any bank manager or employee involved in facilitating financial transactions from these accounts would face arrest and prosecution.
“We are monitoring all the accounts through the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC). Any unauthorized transfers will lead to legal action against those responsible,” he stated.
Authorities have placed the suspect’s financial activities under strict surveillance as investigations continue.
