Deputy Attorney General Alfred Tuah-Yeboah says the government is working hard to ensure that the former MASLOC CEO, Sedina Tamakloe Attionu, is extradited to Ghana to serve her 10-year jail term.
He asked Ghanaians to be rest assured that she would return home to serve her jail term.
The High Court on Tuesday, April 16 sentenced Sedina Tamakloe to 10 years in prison with hard labour.
Daniel Axim, the former Chief Operating Officer of MASLOC, was also sentenced to a five-year jail term.
Reacting to the sentencing, the Deputy Attorney General Tuah-Yeboah described the decision as commendable.
“Good news but what is refreshing is that she will be brought down to face the sentence, no problem at all,” he added.
“We have started the process but with this judgment, it’s going to speed up the process. You know in Ghana we have various laws. You can choose to stay away but so far as we have laws for which you can extract from other countries to Ghana, in case there is a judgment against you like this one, be rest assured that she will be brought down to face judgment,” he stated.
The former MASLOC boss and Mr. Axim were found both guilty on 78 counts for causing financial loss to the state, theft, conspiracy to steal, money laundering, and violating public procurement laws, resulting in loss to public property.
