Paul Adom-Otchere and two others detained over GACL contract probe as he fails to meet bail condition
The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has interviewed and formally charged the former Board Chairman of the Ghana Airports Company Limited, Paul Adom-Otchere and two others. However, Mr Adom-Otchere has so far been unable to meet his bail conditions.
He is required to present two landed properties (of no specific value) registered in his name. However, he has informed the OSP that he does not own landed property in Ghana. As a result, he remains in custody until the bail terms are satisfied.
The two other persons are Otchere Kwame Baffour Awuah- Group Executive, Commercial Services, GACL. An dAlbert Adjetey Adjei-Laryea- CEO of Devnest Systems.
Mr Adom-Otchere is under investigation in connection with a revenue assurance contract between the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) and a private firm owned by the proprietor of Strategic Mobilisation Ghana Ltd (SML). The OSP is examining possible procurement breaches, including a sole-sourced contract awarded to a company other than the one approved by the GACL Board.
