The Office of the Special Prosecutor says there is no actual criminal activity into corruption allegations brought against former Minister of State at the Finance Ministry, Charles Adu Boahen.
The Office headed by Kissi Agyebeng initiated a probe into the case of the Minister following an exposé against him by investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas and his Tigereye PI firm.
But the OSP after its investigations sort of cleared the Minister from any acts of criminality although he had been found to have engaged in some acts of influence peddling
“Though the conduct of Mr. Adu Boahen amounts to trading in influence or influence peddling, which is closely associated with corruption, there is no actual criminal prohibition of his acts in respect of which the OSP has a mandate to further act.”
“On that reckoning, the Special Prosecutor directs the closure, at this time, of the investigation in respect of allegations of corruption and corruption-related offences involving Charles Adu Boahen contained in the investigative documentary titled Galamsey Economy published by Tiger Eye P.I. The investigation may be re-opened should the circumstances and further facts so dictate.”
