Attorney-General Godfred Yeboah Dame has delegated authority to Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng concerning the resolution of the purported money laundering case involving former sanitation minister Cecilia Dapaah.

Dame maintains that since the Special Prosecutor has returned the confiscated funds to Dapaah and discovered no evidence of money laundering, there is essentially no case against her.

In a Joy FM interview on Thursday, May 2, Dame stated, "There was a clear report on the investigations by the Special Prosecutor. No direct and immediate evidence of corruption was found in the seized funds and a frozen bank account linked to Madam Cecilia Dapaah."

He recommended that queries regarding the investigation's closure be directed to the Special Prosecutor, who seems to have conclusively ended the case due to insufficient evidence.

Additionally, the Attorney-General noted that the funds would not have been released to the former minister if they were still under investigation.

He recommended that queries regarding the investigation's closure be directed to the Special Prosecutor, who seems to have conclusively ended the case due to insufficient evidence.

“So, indeed, the question that you’re asking me ought to be asked the Special Prosecutor…has he closed the investigations relating to Cecilia Dapaah? And my understanding from this is indeed he has come to a definite conclusion that there was no evidence and for that matter, the matter was closed,” he stated.

Meanwhile, John Dramani Mahama, the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has declared his intention to reopen the purported money laundering case against Cecilia Dapaah if his government assumes power.

After the Attorney-General advised the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) to cease its investigation, Mahama condemned the decision, pledging to tackle the alleged corruption and misconduct in Dapaah's case.

However, Dame criticized Mahama's remarks, accusing him of engaging in "cheap politics" and lacking a comprehensive understanding of the case particulars.
