Richard Jakpa, the third accused in the ongoing ambulance case, has alleged that Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Godfred Yeboah Dame, informed him that the prosecution’s primary target was to imprison former Deputy Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.

During his testimony on Thursday, June 13, Jakpa stated that the Attorney General disclosed Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson as the main target of the case. This revelation came during cross-examination by Ato Forson’s legal team.

Jakpa claimed he cooperated and shared documents with the Attorney General because he was assured that a no-case application would be submitted to have him discharged afterwards. He added that this assurance led him to believe that the Attorney General would assist him, resulting in Dame providing him with the addendum to the main contract between the Government of Ghana and Big Sea even before the prosecution had closed its case.
