According to the Ghana Crimes news, the Office of the Attorney-General has advised the prosecution of former Adenta Member of Parliament Emmanuel Nii Ashie-Moore for allegedly stealing the personal belongings of a Singaporean businessman.
A legal opinion issued by the Attorney-General’s Office found sufficient evidence to support a charge of stealing under the Criminal Offences Act, 1960.
The advice, addressed to the Criminal Investigations Department of the Ghana Police Service, recommends that Mr Ashie-Moore be formally charged and a statement obtained from him.
Investigations reportedly established that Mr Ashie-Moore checked the complainant, Toh You Kang, out of a hotel while the businessman was in police custody and subsequently removed his luggage.
The Attorney-General’s Office stated that CCTV footage and other evidence support the allegation of dishonest appropriation.
The case is linked to a broader dispute involving claims that Mr Ashie-Moore promised to assist the complainant in securing contracts.
The Attorney-General’s Office emphasised that this advice is a recommendation for prosecution and does not constitute a finding of guilt, as the suspect remains presumed innocent.
