Former Deputy Attorney General Alfred Tuah Yeboah has provided insight into the hurdles faced during the early stages of the investigation into the murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale.

Speaking on Channel One Newsroom on Wednesday, March 19, Tuah Yeboah disclosed that, during his tenure, the Attorney General’s office found insufficient evidence to prosecute any suspects linked to the case.

“During our time, the police did some investigations and, after the investigations, submitted the docket to the AG’s office for our review.

“After reviewing the docket, we realised that there wasn’t enough evidence on the docket to warrant the prosecution of anyone, and we advised the police to go on with the investigation,” he explained.

Tuah Yeboah expressed cautious optimism regarding recent developments in the case, which have led to the arraignment and remand of a suspect, Daniel Owusu Koranteng.

“So I am happy that today they have been able to get someone who has been arraigned before a court and has been remanded to prison custody,” he stated.

However, he raised concerns about the strength of the evidence against the suspect, posing a critical question: “But the question is, do they have enough evidence?”
