The Attorney-General, Godfred Yeboah Dame, has released the full details of the plea bargain letters sent to his office by the third accused, Richard Jakpa, in the matter.
The Minister released the letters after the accused person told me in court on Thursday that he (Dame) approached him multiple times, seeking his assistance to implicate the first accused person, Dr. Ato Forson.
The Attorney-General denied the allegations, insisting that Richard Jakpa is the one who sent several letters requesting a plea bargain in a bid for the state to drop all charges against the accused persons.
“It is rather the third accused who, by various letters dated 27th April 2023, 16th May 2023, 30th May 2023 and 12th June 2023, has proposed to the Republic through the Attorney-General to engage in plea bargaining or plea negotiations. This plea bargaining proposal has, to date, not been accepted by the Attorney-General.
“Even though the law on plea bargaining passed by Parliament permits a prosecutor to negotiate with an accused person after a plea proposal has been made, the Attorney-General has not engaged the third accused person to give false testimony in the matter.”
