The Attorney General is expected to provide additional details during the session, which falls under what is legally termed a “consequential trial” — a post-judgment proceeding that deals with implementing or responding to decisions already made in court.

According to the Attorney General, recent surveillance has suggested that the accused may have attempted to meddle with the prosecution’s case by influencing potential witnesses.

Kwabena Adu-Boahene stands accused alongside his wife, another individual, and their company. Together, they face eleven charges, including stealing, conspiracy to steal, money laundering, and abuse of office. The alleged offences relate to a fraudulent cybersecurity contract involving ISC Holdings Limited, an Israeli firm, during Adu-Boahene’s tenure in office. All the accused parties have entered not guilty pleas.
