Kwabena Adu-Boahene, former Director-General of the National Signals Bureau
Justice John Nyadu Nyante, the presiding judge in the trial of former National Signals Bureau (NSB) Director Kwabena Adu-Boahene, has ruled that plea bargain discussions can only proceed once full disclosures have been filed and served on the defense.
This directive came after the prosecution requested additional time to submit the necessary documents.
Deputy Attorney General Dr Justice Srem-Sai informed the court on Monday, May 26, 2025, that the delay was due to the unavailability of a key investigator who had been unwell.
He assured the court that the investigator would be available by Friday, May 30, 2025.
The judge subsequently ordered that all disclosures be filed by Monday, June 2, 2025.
Although the court did not publicly explain the directive, it followed a private meeting involving Justice Nyante, Deputy Attorney General Dr Srem-Sai, and defense lawyer Samuel Atta Akyea.
The meeting was convened at the request of the Deputy Attorney General.
The case has been adjourned to June 11, 2025, for a case management conference.
Kwabena Adu-Boahene, along with three other individuals, including his wife, Angela Adjei Boateng, has been charged with a total of ten offenses, including stealing, causing financial loss to the state, and money laundering.
