Dorcas and Suka are said to have nabbed Gh.203,000 from 32 potential applicants, who were interested in joining the security forces.

The accused, who have been jointly charged with conspiracy to commit crimes, have denied the charges.

The chief superintendent of police, Augustine Yirenkyi, revealed that the complainant, Alex Mensah Twumasi, was a member of the assembly for Accra Newtown, and Dorcas was unemployed, hailing from Gbawe, Accra.

The prosecution claims that Docas told the complainant that she had ‘protocol connections’ at the Jubilee House.

Docas asked the complainant to give her GH203,000 to secure 32 potential applicants for recruitment into any of the security services – the Ghana Police Service, the Ghana Immigration Service, the Ghana Customs and the Ghana National Fire Service.

GH203,000 was paid by the complainant to Dorcas, but she was unable to fulfill her promise and played hide and seek with the complainant, according to the prosecution.

The chief insp Yirenkyi said the complainant contacted the authorities, and Dorcas was taken into custody.

The court heard that Dorcas, in a cautionary statement, acknowledged receiving GH203,000 to secure a position in the various security services for potential applicants, and that she (Dorcas) gave the money to Suka (now fugitive).

Chief Insp. Yirenkyi said Dorcas claimed Suka worked at the Jubilee House and he could help her secure a job for the 32 potential applicants, but he failed.

According to the prosecution, Dorcas pledged to reimburse the sum (GH203,000) to the complainant, but she failed to do so.

The court appearance of Dorcasis is scheduled for February 5, 2024. GNA is here.
