Bernard Antwi Boasiako must visit the Economic and Organised Crime Office today. People call him Chairman Wontumi. He leads the New Patriotic Party for the Ashanti Region. Police arrested him on May 27 and kept him locked up for several days. A judge let him go free on Monday after he paid 50 million Ghana cedis for bail.
The court made strict rules for his release. He must check with EOCO officers regularly during their investigation. Officials are looking into serious claims against him. They think he might have stolen money and laundered cash. The government says he caused the state to lose money through fraud.
