He also admitted that he and other officers were accused of stealing when he was at the NSS.<\/p>\n<p>He told the court that he was investigated by the Bureau of National Investigation between 2013 and 2014 and that it was the reason he exited the NSS.<\/p>\n<p>The witness also told the court under scrutiny that, which matter was still before the court and among the issues against them was stealing.<\/p>\n<p>But he could not tell how much the alleged stealing was when asked saying \u201cI don\u2019t know sir\u201d and that he was the Greater Accra Regional Director of NSS and occupied that position between three to four years.<\/p>\n<p>The witness told the court that he has heard of the name Spintex but doesn\u2019t know the place and when it was put to him he made statement at the EOCO and made a statement in the court making reference to Spintex road, he admitted.<\/p>\n<p>He, however, denied the assertion that at the time he sent the said money to Madam Sedina, he was still facing charges of stealing.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that he was invited by the BNI somewhere around September 2014 when he was in Israel, but after any investment relationship with MASLOC. He said that was after the GHc500, 000 transactions with MASLOC.  He told the court that he was interdicted in NSS between March and May 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Cross-Examination continues on January 9, 2020.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Thursday, 9 January 2020 Source: starrfm.com.gh 2020-01-09 Former CEO of Microfinance and Small Loans Centre, Sedina Tamakloe It has emerged at the Financial and Tax Division of the Accra High Court that, the third Prosecution Witness in the case in which Madam Sedina Tamakloe, a former Chief Executive Officer, (CEO) of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":755282,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-779379","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-local-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
