Signals Bureau case: ‘I had about 60 questions’ – Atta Akyea welcomes extra cross-examination day
Counsel for former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene appears enthused about the day for extra cross-examination afforded his team.
Former National Signals Bureau Director-General Kwabena Adu-Boahene's team welcomed the additional day for cross-examination, according to their counsel, Samuel Atta Akyea. The lawyer had prepared around 60 questions for the fourth prosecution witness but agreed to limit them to 40 due to a three-hour court restriction. Akyea emphasized the necessity of the extended day, stating that it was essential to cover all relevant aspects of the witness's testimony.
He expressed satisfaction with the Accra High Court's decision, noting that the defense needed to address residual but consequential areas. The case focuses on allegations of financial misconduct involving Mr. Adu-Boahene and others in connection with a cybersecurity procurement deal. The trial has been postponed until September 2, 2026, to continue the cross-examination of the fourth prosecution witness, an investigator with the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO). Both Adu-Boahene and the accused persons deny the charges.
