The Police have arrested National Democratic
Congres financier Alfred Woyome, and is being held at the Police
Headquarters in Accra.
Joy News reporter Evans Mensah reporting
from the Police Headquarters said scores of NDC supporters have besieged
the police fortress and demanding the immediate release of Woyome. At
least three of them, all women, have been arrested for rowdy behaviour.
Castle
sources which confirmed the arrest to Joy News said it was in
connection with the ongoing financial scandal involving the payment of
some GHS58 million in judgement debt to him.
Woyome only
yesterday resigned his chairmanship of the National Board for Small
Scale Industries (NBBSI) to allow for investigations into the matter.
The
Economic and Organised Crimes Office on Thursday presented an interim
report of investigations it conducted on the matter to President Mills,
indicting Woyome of wrongfully suing the state when he had no basis
whatsoever to do so.
