While the OSP acknowledges these suspected offences, they do not fall directly within the mandate of the Office. By law, the office cannot investigate, prosecute nor recover proceeds of crime except those that fall within corruption and corruption-related offences as defined under section 79 of the Office of the Special Prosecutor Act, 2017 (Act 959).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn compliance with section 3 of Act 959, which mandates the OSP to cooperate and coordinate with other law enforcement agencies, the case has been transferred to EOCO for further investigation,\u201d it stated.<\/p>\n<p>The OSP underscored that in August 2023, the OSP acted by freezing Ms. Dapaah\u2019s bank accounts and confiscating $590,000 and GH\u00a22.73 million from her residence after news of the theft of a substantial amount of cash in cedis and foreign currencies went viral.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUntil today, the Office has been in court to confirm the frozen bank accounts and confirm the seized monies for longer periods pending the outcome of investigations. A portion of the inquiry was entrusted to the FBI due to allegations suggesting involvement of transfer of funds from the United States,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source: theheraldghana.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghana&#8217;s anti-graft body, the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), is celebrating surpassing its 2023 target with a total recovery of GH\u00a2232,092,763.03 million in Direct [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14622,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1592],"tags":[3508],"class_list":["post-14621","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-eoco-retrives-cash"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
