Court rejects OSP’s application to freeze Cecilia Dapaah’s account; ordered to return seized property

The Financial Division of the Accra High Court has ordered the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to return seized property of former Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources Cecilia Abena Dapaah within seven days.

The Court says there was no justifiable basis for the seizure of the property as the OSP entered the act wrongly.

The Court also found the OSP as having no reasonable grounds to freeze the bank accounts of the former Bantama Member of Parliament (MP).

It said the action by the OSP was borne out of speculation and reaction to public sentiments, thus undertaking poor investigations subsequently.

The ruling was given on Thursday, August 31.
