The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has said former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has officially informed them of his definite return to Ghana from the United States where he is receiving medical treatment.
To that end, the OSP said Mr Ofori-Atta has been removed from its wanted list.
The OSP announced this in a statement on Tuesday, February 18.
On 12 February 2025, the Special Prosecutor declared Mr Ofori-Atta, a wanted person and a fugitive from justice on the ground that he had failed to indicate a reasonable time for his return to the jurisdiction - although he had been informed by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) that he was a suspect in various suspected corruption and corruption-related cases and he had been directed to physically attend the OSP in Accra on a specified date and at a specified time for interviewing.
