Mr Adu-Boahene, and two others, are facing charges of alleged embezzlement and financial misconduct in connection with a $7 million, equivalent to GH¢49 millioncyber defence system contract. Mr Adu-Boahene’s counsel, Mr Samuel Atta Akyea, was not in court when the case was called at 12 noon on Tuesday. When the presiding judge inquired about the whereabouts of Mr Akyea, the former NSB boss told the court that his lawyer maybe out of the country. Mr Adu-Boahene has pleaded not guilty to all the charges and is on bail. His lawyer, Samuel Atta Akyea, has maintained that his client committed no offence and will vigorously contest the prosecution’s case.
