The work instructions do not mention or concern Menzgold or Nana Appiah Mensah. Neither the company nor I have been involved in incidents that would have occurred in Dubai several months after we were informed of the situation. Our instructions, when the Dubai incidents were reported later, were that the Accra case we were dealing with and that the Dubai incidents were separate and unrelated. The client did not ask for our opinion on the Dubai incidents and we did not submit any. Every document we received from the client and which was intended for the police was handed over to the investigator of the Criminal Investigation Unit of Chief Inspector of Police, Wisdom Semanu. We have no documents that imply or warrant Menzgold or Mensah in any matter whatsoever. They are simply not mentioned in these documents, "said Mr. Ankomah in his statement.
