The State has officially closed its case against Kwabena Adu-Boahene and two others in the trial involving an alleged GH¢49.1 million loss to the state.
Deputy Attorney General Justice Srem-Sai disclosed this in a Facebook post on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, outlining the evidence presented by the prosecution during the trial.
According to the prosecution, Mr Adu-Boahene allegedly used “clever means” to divert funds from a state agency and, with the assistance of his wife and their company, subsequently spent the money.
The accused persons are facing charges including stealing, money laundering and causing financial loss to the Republic.
Justice Srem-Sai said Mr Adu-Boahene’s main defence was that the money was not used for himself, his family or friends, but rather to acquire a cyber defence system for the state agency.
The Republic called four witnesses to establish its case.
The first witness, who worked as the family driver for Mr Adu-Boahene and his wife, told the court that he carried out money-related errands for the couple and transported large sums of cash from banks to them, as well as to their friends, relatives and associates.
