    Some of Cecilia Abena Dapaah’s accounts have been frozen by the Office of the Special Prosecutor. She was the former Minister for Water Resources and Sanitation.

    The accounts reportedly contain sizeable sums of money in both cedi and dollar denominations.

    According to court records, the OSP has submitted a motion to seize the funds uncovered during the home search.

    Although the OSP has the power to administratively freeze accounts connected to a person of interest, a judge’s permission is required to extend the action.

    In connection with this, two more people have been detained in relation to the former Minister’s theft of a million dollars from her Accra home by domestic staff.

    Patience Botwe, 18, and Sarah Agyei, 30, had already been charged with five counts of theft and conspiracy to commit a crime in connection with the case. In addition, Benjamin Sowah, Kwaku Botwe, and Malik Dauda were accused of receiving the allegedly stolen money dishonestly.

    Patience Botwe and Sarah Agyei, the main suspects, were charged with stealing the personal items belonged to Madam Cecilia Abena Dapaah. Numerous clothing items worth Gh95,000, handbags, perfumes, and jewelry worth US$95,000 were among the stolen goods.
