Lawyers of Dr. Tweneboah Senzu, Managing Director of Bastiat Society-Ghana, have debunked reports in the media suggesting that their client was arrested for defrauding one Seth Ohene of GH\u00e2\u201a\u00b5 22,516.<\/p>\n

They suspect detractors of the leader of the economic think tank are behind the publications meant to deliberately to dent his credibility.<\/p>\n

The media reports had claimed Dr. Senzu allegedly defrauded Seth Ohene, Manager of Janeseth Agro- chemicals of GH\u00e2\u201a\u00b5 22,516 in a cocoa fertilizer deal in 2012 and was arrested on his way to Western region to train the newly employed Bastiat Staff.<\/p>\n

It said the case was taken to court in July 2013, but the suspect failed to appear before it and a bench warrant was issued for his arrest.<\/p>\n

However, a five-member team of lawyers including Mr. Raymond Akapastis and Mr. Baffour Dwuma, Legal Consultant in a statement denied the allegation. It stated categorically that no competent court of law has a link with the publication and dared those behind the story to identify themselves.<\/p>\n

According to the lawyers, their findings revealed that no charge sheet of a fraudulent case has been brought against Dr. Senzu before Takoradi Circuit Court A, as it was alleged in the media reports.<\/p>\n

The statement also mentioned a conflict between Dr. Senzu and some past executive members of the Chamber of Commerce of Sekondi-Takoradi.<\/p>\n

The conflict arose when Dr. Senzu stood up against their abuse of power during their period as executives of the Chamber, which he said was against the society constitution order.<\/p>\n
