The family of former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta has hit back at Ghana's Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP), accusing it of staging a "premeditated vendetta" and abusing its powers.

In a strongly worded statement released Monday, June 9, the family condemned the INTERPOL Red Notice issued against Ofori-Atta and demanded its removal, citing breaches of due process, international law, and human rights.

According to them, the arrest warrant issued in February-over alleged misuse of public office for personal gain-was obtained under questionable conditions, without an affidavit or formal charges.

They also allege that the OSP manipulated evidence and withheld crucial medical records.
