The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has withdrawn all six charges of corruption and bribery against Owusu Andy Thomas, effectively clearing him of those allegations.
Andy Thomas was facing trial alongside Charles Bissue, former Secretary of the defunct Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining, over a total of 15 counts related to corruption and bribery.
The charges originated from a 2019 investigative exposé by undercover journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas, which implicated several officials in alleged misconduct connected to illegal mining operations.
At the time of his discharge, Owusu was facing nine charges, including six directly tied to bribery and corruption.
