The office of the Special Prosecutor, has yet made another revelation regarding the former Sanitation Minister, Cecilia Dapaah’s dead brother.
According to a new development, the dead brother of Cecilia Dapaah’s bank account is still active and keeps transferring money to her. This follows an attempt by OSP to seize millions of cash from the former Minister and order for the freezing of some bank accounts with over ¢40 million transactions.
“Analysis of the statements in the first respondent’s (Cecilia Dapaah) bank account revealed highly suspicious transactions involving the name of the first respondent’s deceased brother – Nana Akwasi Essan.
“The said Nana Akwasi Essan died in January 2022 and there is no record domiciled at the financial institutions of probate or letters of administration granted to personal representatives).
The OSP made these fresh allegations that an account belonging to the dead brother of the former Sanitation Minister was still sending money to Cecilia Dapaah’s accounts in a bid to confirm the seizure of suspected tainted properties belonging to Madam Dapaah.
“Strangely, there are active transfers from the deceased person’s bank account to that of the first respondent’s account”, the filing alleges.
The OSP continue to allege that “as recently as September 19, 2022, and May 2023, amounts of ¢10,450 and ¢11,280 respectively were transferred, supposedly by the deceased brother to the first respondent (Cecilia Dapaah).”
