The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has issued a stern warning to former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta, stating that he will be re-listed as a wanted person should he fail to appear for questioning on 2nd June 2025.

This follows a prior agreement between Mr. Ofori-Atta and the OSP, in which he assured authorities of his willingness to cooperate with the ongoing corruption investigations.

The OSP initially removed his name from its wanted list in good faith after receiving a formal request from him.

In a statement responding to a lawsuit filed by Yaw Ofori-Atta challenging the OSP’s earlier designation of Ken Ofori-Atta as a fugitive from justice, the prosecuting authority clarified its stance

“Mr. Ofori-Atta formally requested the OSP to remove his name from the OSP’s list of wanted persons with the assurance that he would make himself available for questioning on a definite date,” the statement noted.

The OSP further emphasized that his removal from the list was conditional upon his personal attendance at the designated time.

The Special Prosecutor has now made it clear that Mr. Ofori-Atta’s presence is “mandatorily required” on 2nd June 2025.

Should he fail to attend, he will immediately be re-listed as a wanted person and deemed a fugitive from justice. The OSP warned that in such a case, it would issue an Interpol Red Notice and initiate extradition proceedings in any jurisdiction where he may be located.

Meanwhile, the former Finance Minister has taken legal action against the OSP, seeking an injunction to prevent the office from re-declaring him a wanted person.

He argues that the actions taken by the Special Prosecutor are baseless and lack justification.

His legal representatives assert that he has cooperated with investigators through his lawyers, thus rendering any attempt to label him a fugitive unfair and damaging to his reputation.

The legal battle stems from allegations of corruption and financial misconduct, for which Mr. Ofori-Atta has been named the prime suspect in five ongoing investigations.

The OSP has insisted that it remains unwavering in its duty to enforce the law and ensure justice is served.

The agency reiterated its position that it will not relent in its pursuit of accountability, especially in matters concerning financial malfeasance.

Mr. Ofori-Atta, however, maintains that the OSP’s actions have caused “significant damage to his reputation and personal life.”

Through his lawsuit, he is seeking to restrain the Special Prosecutor from making any further public declarations about his status until all legal proceedings have been resolved.
