Ofori-Atta sues OSP for declaring him wanted

Former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has taken legal action against the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) over its decision to declare him wanted.

Ofori-Atta is seeking a court injunction to prevent the OSP from reissuing the declaration, arguing that it is baseless and has caused severe damage to his reputation.

The lawsuit follows the OSP’s announcement labeling him a fugitive in connection with alleged corruption and financial misconduct.

Ofori-Atta, however, insists he has cooperated with investigations through his legal representatives.

He is asking the court to restrain the OSP from making further declarations against him until the case is fully resolved.
