You cannot begin making conclusions on a case a week or two after commencing an investigation. But after piecing together all your evidence, testimonies, and everything else, something should then suggest to you,\u201d said the Special Prosecutor, adding, \u201cIf, after the seven months, we did not have anything, we would just let it go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut after seven months, I think we should be commended that we have been able to do such extensive work and have international collaborations as part of this matter. That is to say, we left no stone unturned, and that is what is leading us to this outcome, as I have just announced,\u201d Mr. Agyebeng emphasised.<\/p>\n<p>OSP refers Cecilia Dapaah&#8217;s case to Economic and Organised Crime Office<\/p>\n<p>The Special Prosecutor believed that, with the benefit of hindsight, which his office did not have, the EOCO, which has the mandate to investigate and prosecute money-laundering cases, would be able to prosecute Mrs. Dapaah&#8217;s case to the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the High Court has ordered the Office of the Special Prosecutor to, within 72 hours, release all funds and unfreeze the assets of the embattled former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources. This directive follows the OSP&#8217;s discontinuation of Mrs. Dapaah&#8217;s corruption case.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
