An Accra High Court has ordered the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to return Cecilia Dapaah’s seized funds to her within seven days.
When the OSP seized her assets, the former Sanitation Minister became embroiled in a judicial battle. The court, however, overruled this move, ordering the OSP to refund the confiscated funds to her.
Following the discovery that Madam Dapaah was keeping more than $1 million in her home, the OSP is investigating her for corruption and corruption-related offenses.
Following the shocking disclosure of stolen funds by her domestic staff, the Office of the Special Prosecutor conducted a thorough investigation of the minister’s residences, motivated by the extraordinary amounts reported stolen.
