According to Mr Ahiagbah, Mr Ofori-Atta is not "a flight risk" and is fully available to cooperate with any investigation into the corruption allegations against him.
His comments follow a press conference held by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) on Wednesday, 12 February 2025, where Mr Ofori-Atta was declared a fugitive.
