Accra, Ghana – Former Finance Minister Kenneth Nana Yaw Ofori-Atta has filed a lawsuit against two senior police officers, DSP Bismark Boakye Ansah and Chief Inspector Mensah.
The lawsuit alleges that the two officers led a group of individuals, including some in military and police uniforms, in a raid on Ofori-Atta’s Cantonments residence on February 11, 2025.
Ofori-Atta was out of the country at the time of the incident, while his wife and other family members were present.
The former minister is seeking damages for trespass and breach of privacy, as well as a perpetual injunction to prevent any further interference with his property and privacy rights.
The defendants have been ordered to enter an appearance within eight days of being served with the writ.
The lawsuit follows a denial by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) of any involvement in the raid.
