The lawmaker had earlier stated in an interview that the hands behind Wontumi’s ongoing investigation by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) are bigger than the people who run the EOCO and the intelligence agencies.

Speaking on Channel One TV’s Face to Face, Dr Ayew Afriyie stated, “For Chairman Wontumi’s case, we’re going to beg. The hand behind this is bigger than the people who run the EOCO and the intelligence agencies. I will put it at the doorstep of President Mahama.

Wontumi went overboard in some of his videos. And I played a lot of them to show him on June 9. I told him we will go and beg, if we have to kneel down in front of President Mahama, and we will tell him that for these videos, he [Wontumi] crossed the line,” he stated.

Chairman Wontumi was finally released from EOCO custody on June 2, after meeting his bail GHS50 million conditions.

Wontumi was arrested by EOCO following a visit to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) headquarters on Tuesday, May 27 shortly after leaving the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) headquarters in Accra.

Meanwhile, the Deputy Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Justice Srem-Sai has revealed that Chairman Wontumi is under investigation for fraud, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering.

Justice Srem-Sai also revealed that Wontumi is also being investigated for an International organised crime scheme.

The Deputy Attorney General noted that EOCO is assiduously working with our international law enforcement partners on the second strand of criminal investigations.

According to Justice Srem-Sai, the ongoing investigation is being handled by the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO), with asset recovery efforts already underway to secure suspected proceeds of crime.
