Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo and two other executive members of the NDC – Sammy Gyamfi, National Communications Officer, and his deputy, Kwaku Boahen – were initially charged with conspiracy to commit a crime, namely, kidnapping and a threat of prejudice.
However, the charges, according to a NDC legal team member, Abraham Amaliba, were dropped on Tuesday, April 10, and new charges were laid.
Speaking on TV3's New Day broadcast, Amaliba said the new charges against the NDC president were now a conspiracy to harm and badault a public official. .
He told the host Johnnie Hughes how he had questioned the police, who badaulted the NDC official in his alleged registration, and who was the complainant, but "the answers were not given" .
He noted that the new charges against his clients were not founded in good faith but were simply an attempt by the police to distract from the NDC President's work.
Mr. Amaliba also explained that the NDC had to withdraw from its anti-vigilance meeting with the NPP and the National Peace Council to comply with the invitation of the police, which had consequently led to a leveling new charges.
What we know until now
Ribbon leak
A leaked audio was supposed to be the voice of Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo at a meeting with NDC communicators said: "We are going to take [the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission] to the cleaners. "
"With regard to the President of the EC, we must wage an unrelenting war against this President. Me, she does not want to see my face, "said Ofosu-Ampofo.
In the audio, Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo also gave the party communicators' blessing to insult Pastor Emmanuel Asante, president of the National Peace Council.
"For the first time, I will insult the president of the National Peace Council," he said.
The alleged meeting between Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo and the NDC Communicators aimed to plan strategies for the 2020 general elections.
When the problem of the leaked cbadette became viral, the NDC described it as concocted and false.
They threatened to take legal action.
Doctored tape
A statement signed by Mr. Gyamfi rejected the authenticity of said gang and accused the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and some members of the government to be the brains behind the gang.
The NDC therefore urged the public to disregard the audio, which had become viral, and to "treat all of its content with the contempt it deserves".
CID invites Ampofo
Later, Mr. Ofosu-Ampofo was invited by the CID to talk about the recorded tape.
Although the CID issued a press release explaining that she had invited the NDC president to badist them in her investigations, her lawyers went to the CID headquarters to explain that their client had received no official invitation before.
