Police arrested Bernard Antwi-Boasiako after he finished meeting with criminal investigators. The politician, known as Chairman Wontumi, leads the NPP party in the Ashanti Region. Economic and Organized Crime Office officers took him into custody outside the CID building. JoyNews reported the arrest happened on Tuesday afternoon. Officials have not explained why they detained the businessman.

Criminal investigators questioned Wontumi for several hours about mining violations. Former Attorney General Godfred Dame led his legal defense team during the interrogation. Police accused him of mining without proper permits and damaging water sources. Forest officials also claim he entered protected areas without permission. The regional chairman answered all questions and cooperated fully with the authorities.

CID released an official statement about the case later that day. Superintendent Joseph Benefo Darkwah confirmed Wontumi gave his statement to police. Officers granted him bail after the long questioning session. He must return to the police station at 3 pm on Tuesday, May 27. The politician faces serious environmental and mining law violations.
