Saglemi Housing Contractor Found Dead
The contractor who executed the controversial Saglemi Affordable Housing Project, Andrew Clocanas, has reportedly died at his Airport Residential Apartment.
According to reports the body was found in his washroom beneath a shower on Saturday, October 21.
The body has since been deposited at the Lashibi Funeral Home.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Police Service has commenced investigations into his death and has thus visited his apartment to interrogate some persons.
Andrew Clocanas and several others are currently facing trial for their alleged involvement in a financial loss to the state over the $200M sum approved for the Saglemi Affordable Housing Project.
The accused persons include Dr Kwaku Agyeman-Mensah, also a former Minister of Water Resources, Works and Housing, Alhaji Ziblim Yakubu, Executive Chairman of Construtora OAS Ghana Limited and Nouvi Tetteh Angelo, CEO, and owner of Ridge Management Solutions Ghana Limited.
They have all pleaded not guilty and have been granted bail.
Earlier, prosecutors told the Court that they would call five witnesses to testify in the case, where the evidence-in-chief from the witnesses, coupled with cross-examination from the defence was estimated to last for 1, 952 hours.
