In its mid-week edition, the Free Press says its reconnaissance mission has gathered that about three weeks ago, a sackful of money was discovered behind Dr. Obed Asamoah's family house at Likpe Bala in the Volta Region. The paper says a source from the village revealed this when the reconnaissance team went there twice last week to investigate the story. According to the Free Press, prior to the discovery the family of Dr. Asamoah, Minister of Justice and Attorney-General, had caused a gong-gong to be beaten announcing that a sackful of money was missing from the Asamoah family house. The gong-gong beater, the paper says, ended his message with a threat that if the finder refused to return the money, he or she would meet an untimely death. The Free Press says the source said a few days later after the announcement, a teenage girl who went about collecting paddy rice, stumbled upon a sack of money with some currencies scattered over the ground outside Dr. Asamoah's house. The girl happens to be the daughter of the Likpe-Bala gong-gong beater. According to the paper, the elders of the town gave the street value of the money stashed in the sack at several millions of cedis. GRI
