The Free Press reports in its main front page story that the British community is fuming over their government's decision to spend as much as 750,00 pounds sterling (2.25 billion cedis) of taxpayer's money towards investigations into Captain Kojo Tsikata's links with the Libyan government. The Free press says the British describe the decision as a shocking example of how M15 can run amok, adding that some argue that the most basic research could have saved the expense of an operation which cost 750,000 pounds of British taxpayer's money. The story is under the headline: "The caging of Ghana's Security capo-tuti...UK Votes 2.2 billion cedis to track down Tsikata". GRI

GRI In another front page story headlined: "Bank of Ghana holds crisis meeting", the Free Press reports that in a bid to stem damaging and the downright embarrassing disclosures about scandals at the Bank of Ghana (BOG), the new governor, Dr Kwabena Duffuor has warned the workers that any one caught leaking information to the press, especially the Free Press, will be summarily dismissed. The Free Press says the warning was given at a meeting with the entire staff of the bank in Accra on Wednesday, September 10. According to the paper, quoting participants, the Governor expressed concern about the recent Free Press disclosure about the end-of-service benefits given to the former governor, Dr G.K. Agama and his deputy, Nana Ama Oye Yeboah the first. GRI
