Accra, Nov. 10, GNA – Officials of the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) and the Lands Commission have visited a property in Tema belonging to Mr Bernard Antwi Boasiako, also known as Chairman Wontumi, to conduct a professional valuation.
EOCO said the visit was to enable the two institutions to undertake a professional valuation of the property, which was frozen by the Office and confirmed by the court last year.
A statement issued by the Head of Corporate Affairs and Public Education at EOCO on Monday said the exercise formed part of due process in the management of the property.
It said officials of EOCO and the Lands Commission visited the property to take its geographical coordinates and measurements for the valuation.
The exercise was completed in less than 10 minutes without any incident, the statement said.
EOCO urged the public to disregard what it described as false publications circulating in the media about the activity.
Earlier media reports had suggested that Wontumi’s house in Tema had been ransacked.
