Charles Bissue is former presidential staffer
Former Secretary to the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (IMCIM), Charles Bissue, has been fined GHS500 by the Human Rights Court for his failure to take action in a case aimed at halting the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) from investigating and prosecuting him.
In June, Bissue initiated legal proceedings by filing a writ at the High Court in Accra with the objective of preventing the Office of the Special Prosecutor from pursuing a case against him.
The OSP had launched an investigation into allegations of corruption and corruption-related activities during Bissue's tenure as secretary of the IMCIM.
The OSP disclosed the imposition of the GHS500 fine against Charles Bissue on X, Wednesday, 8 November 2023.
Meanwhile, the case has been adjourned to Wednesday, 15 November 2023.
