Samuel Atta Akyea, lead counsel for former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau (NSB), Kwabena Adu-Boahene, has refuted claims that his client has made any attempt to engage in a plea-bargaining process with the Attorney General's office.
Speaking to the media shortly after proceedings at the High Court on Monday, May 26, 2025, Atta Akyea described the circulating reports as "completely unfounded" and reaffirmed the innocence of his client and the latter's wife, Angela Adjei Boateng, who is also standing trial. "We have not made any overtures.
There is nothing on the table for us to plea bargain.
There has been no request-formal or informal-for any plea bargaining from my clients. "These rumours are not only misleading but also intended to tarnish the reputation of a man who insists on his innocence and is prepared to clear his name through the judicial process." Atta Akyea further stressed that his clients were confident in the legal process and would contest all charges leveled against them in open court.
