Lawyers for Ken Ofori-Atta, the former Finance Minister of Ghana, have informed the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) that their client is currently seeking medical attention outside of Ghana.
According to reports, the lawyers communicated this information to the OSP in response to the office’s efforts to summon Mr. Ofori-Atta for questioning in connection with an ongoing investigation.
The OSP had previously declared Mr. Ofori-Atta a fugitive after he allegedly failed to comply with a summons to appear before the office. However, the lawyers’ revelation that Mr. Ofori-Atta is receiving medical care abroad may shed new light on his absence.
It is unclear at this time what medical condition Mr. Ofori-Atta is being treated for, or how long he is expected to remain abroad. The OSP has not publicly commented on how this new information may impact their investigation or their efforts to bring Mr. Ofori-Atta in for questioning.
