Frank Davies, legal counsel for former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, has dismissed claims by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) that it has not received his client's medical report.
His response follows a statement by the OSP on June 2, alleging that Ofori-Atta had failed to submit any medical documentation to support his inability to appear before the office, despite citing health-related concerns.
Addressing the media in Accra on Monday, Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng accused the former minister of acting in bad faith, noting that the OSP's patience had worn thin. "From January 24 till now, Mr.
Ofori-Atta has not produced any medical report," Agyebeng said. "He said he was to undergo surgery in March… After accommodating him, he never informed the OSP of any changes to his condition." Supporting Agyebeng's position, Sammy Darko, Director of Strategy, Research, and Communication at the OSP, dismissed the medical report issued by Ofori-Atta's legal team as an "afterthought." However, speaking on Citi Eyewitness News on Friday, June 6, 2025, Davies challenged the OSP's narrative, insisting that the medical report had been included in court filings served on the office. "It is very disingenuous for the OSP [to say] that he doesn't have a medical report relating to the health of Ken Ofori-Atta.
