Arrest And Detention Of The Party Official
The arrest of Dennis Miracles Aboagye at the Kotoka International Airport has triggered questions over the procedure followed by state investigative agencies. The New Patriotic Party has since called for clarity on the circumstances that led to his detention after his return to the country.
According to the party executives, Dennis Miracles Aboagye returned to Ghana on Saturday after travelling outside the country. Officials alleged that personnel of the Ghana Immigration Service intercepted him at the airport before handing him over to officers of the Economic and Organised Crime Office.
The development was first made public by the General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party, Justin Frimpong Kodua, through a statement on social media. He alleged that the arrest was carried out without prior notice and called for the immediate release of the party communicator.
Furthermore, party executives stated that Dennis Miracles Aboagye has not received any invitation requiring him to report to the Economic and Organised Crime Office before his return to Ghana. They argued that a formal request would have provided an opportunity for him to cooperate with any ongoing investigation.
