Ofori Atta Hasn’t Submitted Any Medical Report- OSP

The Office of the Special Prosecutor has disclaimed a viral medical report purported to be that of suspect Ken Ofori Atta.

It noted in a statement on June 3 that no certified medical record of the former Finance Minister had been submitted to its outfit.

“We wish to place on record that neither Mr. Ofori-Atta nor his lawyers have submitted any such letter to the OSP.”

According to the Office, the lawyers of the suspect only sent correspondence to inform it that he had been diagnosed with cancer and set for treatment on June 13, 2025, for which reason he will be unable to return to the jurisdiction as earlier scheduled.

“The only correspondence received from his legal representatives is a letter notifying the OSP of a change in his medical condition and on their say so.”

Acknowledging the purported viral medical letter, it said, “It is notable that this alleged hospital letter has been circulated through the media rather than submitted to the law enforcement agency actively investigating him and responsible for decisions regarding his return to Ghana.”

“To date, no certified medical records or official document from any hospital authority has been submitted to the OSP indicating that Mr. Ofori-Atta is incapacitated or unable to travel to Ghana.”

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has triggered processes to have Ofori Atta, extradited for investigation and prosecution.

On June 2, 2025, the Special Prosecutor, Kissi Agyebeng, announced the redeclaration of the former government official as a fugitive of justice.
