Undercover investigative journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, has revealed that on some occasions, the large sums of money he paid as bribes during undercover investigations have been kept as permanent exhibits by authorities, never to be returned.
This revelation came in response to a question Anas answered during his appearance at the Disruption Lab Network event in Germany.
He was discussing his work combating organized crime in Africa with CNN’s Stephanie Busari.
Busari asked Anas whether he ever gets the bribe money back from the individuals he pays it to.
Anas responded: “Well it depends. There have been certain occasions that the money has been used as exhibits and the people who used it as exhibits kept it as exhibits, permanent exhibits.”
