Frank Davies defends Ken Ofori-Atta against corruption charges. The lawyer says his client stays sick and cannot travel to Ghana. Davies criticizes Special Prosecutor Kissi Agyebeng for calling Ofori-Atta a fugitive. He argues the former Finance Minister deserves fair treatment under the law. Davies spoke on Citi FM radio about the case Monday.
Ofori-Atta faces investigations for three major issues. Authorities examine his role with the National Cathedral project. They also look at the SML revenue contract and ambulance parts buying. The former minister asked for a virtual meeting with prosecutors. Officials refused his request for remote questioning.
Davies says Agyebeng handles the case poorly. He thinks the prosecutor ignores basic human rights. The lawyer reminds everyone that suspects remain innocent before conviction. Davies challenges Agyebeng to bring his client back if he wants him. He says the prosecutor knows where to find the sick former minister.
