Paul Adom-Otchere released from custody after meeting revised bail terms
Former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited, Paul Adom-Otchere, has been released from custody.
He was released from the OSP’s office in the company of Former Attorney General, Godfred Dame and his lawyers.
However, Adom-Otchere has reportedly been recalled by the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) to complete some administrative procedures.
This comes after the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) approved revised bail conditions for Paul Adom-Otchere, the former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), following negotiations with his legal counsel.
In a statement released on Friday, August 1, the OSP confirmed that the revised terms meet the objectives of the original bail conditions and have been secured by the Jospong Group of Companies, acting as surety.
“The revised terms, which meet the objectives of the original bail conditions, have been secured by the Jospong Group of Companies,” the OSP said, noting that the matter remains under active investigation.
Adom-Otchere was recently charged by the OSP in connection with a revenue assurance contract between GACL and a private firm, allegedly awarded without full board approval. He was initially detained after failing to meet bail requirements, citing his lack of ownership of landed property in Ghana.
