The Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Wednesday assured victims of the alleged missing dollar scandal at the Ghana Mission in Libya that an official investigation is underway to unravel the mystery.
This was contained in a statement issued in Accra about the alleged theft of the unspecified amount deposited at the Embassy by some 200 Ghanaian residents who were evacuated by the government last year during an attack on black immigrants by rampaging Libyan youth.
The release signed by Mr Leonard Daniel Mensah, Acting Director of Information, Culture and Linguistics Bureau was prompted by a story on the scandal by an Accra daily.
It said the ministry is in touch with the Attorney General's Department and would soon come out with an official statement on the matter.
