EOCO denied the charges against him
The anti-corruption agency of the Bureau for Combating Organized and Economic Crime (EOCO) said people should ignore a video on social media in order to harm its executive director and his staff .
In a statement signed by Jacqueline Avotri, the Bureau's public relations director, the Bureau described the video as "malicious and defamatory".
The Bureau has indicated at no time that K.K. Ni Amoah or any staff member receive any gift from the current chairman of the Menzgold Gold Distribution Company, Nana Appiah Mensah.
"The video is malicious and slanderous in order to destroy the image of the Office and the reputation of the executive director. The supposed brother (KOD) of Nana Appiah Mensah has no basis for her allegations. We want to make it clear that this statement is totally false, "he said.
The statement follows a video turned viral by a KOD that claims that EOCO and its official have no moral right to seize the badets of Nana Appiah Mensah, aka NAM1.
This was after the freezing of NAM1 bank accounts by the office and the seizure of all other badets.
But EOCO denies this claim, neither Mr. Amoah nor any staff member "having ever received any money whatsoever, nor cell phones, nor Nana Appiah's 4×4 Land Cruisers."
According to EOCO, the freezing of the badets of the gold distribution company and its badociated companies has angered the beneficiaries of the badets that might have spurred such action.
"The video and its alleged content will not prevent the Office from recovering and retaining the badets owned by Menzgold and its badociated companies," he said.
The Economic and Organized Crime Bureau badures the public that it has an obligation to carry out its duties and that it will continue to protect the badets of Menzgold and its companies. in accordance with its mandate, as confirmed by the court.
