Speaking at a media briefing, Dr. Ayine explained that discussions are still underway with A-Plus on his potential role in the matter.


“In the case of the famous A Plus, the investigation is still ongoing, and there are talks with him with respect to the role that he will play — either in respect of providing evidence against those who tried to do what is alleged to have been done, or, if at the end of the day, no agreement is reached, then maybe he will have to stand trial,” the Attorney General stated.


Dr. Ayine also noted that previous plans to interrogate A-Plus in Parliament had stalled. 


“The investigators were supposed to go to Parliament and do the interrogation, and at the last time that they made a request, they could not do the interrogation,” he said.
