J.H. Mensah burglary unresolved

In its lead headline story, the Ghanaian Voice reports that almost a month after Mr J.H. Mensah, Minority Leader in Parliament, claimed to have lost some documents, including three briefcases containing working files from Parliament, personal documents, numerous business cards, 100,000 cedis, $150 and $50 in traveller?s cheques, miscellaneous amount in foreign currencies and two sets of keys, the Kpeshie Police in Accra, are still ?knocking their heads against the wall? trying to locate the alleged culprits.

The Voice quotes the crime officer of the Kpeshie Divisional Headquarters of the Ghana Police Service as saying that there were no indications on the doors and windows in Mr Mensah?s house that could firmly suggest a break-in. According to the crime officer, investigation in the area had led to no clue to substantiate or support the burglary theory.

"There were no finger prints on the door lock that could have been analysed at the forensic laboratory to produce leads as to who might have done Mr Mensah in", he is quoted as saying.
