Gh¢86m fraud: Embattled ex-NSS boss back in court

The embattled former National Service boss Alhaji Alhassan Imoro returns to court today for allegedly stealing over Ghc86 million from the state.

At the last sitting, state prosecutors for a second time prayed the court for an adjournment to allow the prosecution to complete its investigations.

Imoro was granted bail in the sum of Ghc90 million with three sureties all to be justified with property worth one million Ghana cedis. He was to surrender his passport to the BNI until further notice and report himself.

Imoro has pleaded not guilty to the charge of stealing Ghc86.9 million belonging to the government of Ghana through the payment of ghost or non-existent service personnel.

On November 3 last year, Imoro was discharged at the Circuit Court and he was quickly re-arrested and arraigned before the Fast Track High Court.
