The Deputy Attorney-General, Justice Srem-Sai, has revealed that Bernard Antwi Bosiako, aka Chairman Wontumi, is under investigation for multiple criminal offenses.
Chairman Wontumi, the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party, is being investigated for offenses including fraud, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering.
Justice Srem-Sai also confirmed that the ongoing criminal investigation is running concurrently with asset recovery efforts to prevent the suspected proceeds of crime from being dissipated.
He said in a media interview that the other aspect of the investigation is in connection with his alleged involvement in a larger international organized crime scheme.
He added that the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) is working in collaboration with international law enforcement partners in this regard.
