Maame Yaa Tiwaa Addo-Danquah, Executive Director of the Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO), has stated that it is becoming difficult to find evidence to prosecute Nana Appiah Mensah, aka NAM1, the former CEO of Menzgold.
She stated that sometimes you know someone has committed a crime but lack the relevant law to support your case, citing the Menzgold case as an example.
The EOCO boss explained that nothing is a crime until it is made a crime by legislation.
“An example is the Menzgold case. Which law, which Act did he break? And it is becoming difficult even prosecuting that case because no law will define the offence.”She stated that the relevant law that defines the CEO’s offence is becoming difficult to obtain.
She went on to say that economic and financial crime is one of the most difficult cases to prosecute.
