Former Deputy Attorney General Alfred Tuah Yeboah has questioned the evidence in Ahmed Suale's case, which has led to the arrest of a suspect and his remand in prison custody.

He is concerned about whether there is now enough evidence to secure a conviction.

“I am happy that today they have been able to get someone who has been arraigned before a court and has been remanded to prison custody,” he said.

“But the question is, do they have enough evidence?” he asked in an interview with Channel One Newsroom, highlighting the critical issue that could determine whether justice is truly served.

Alfred Tuah Yeboah further shed light on the challenges investigators faced in the early stages of probing the murder of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale.

He detailed the legal roadblocks that initially prevented any prosecution.

“During our time, the police conducted investigations and, after completing them, submitted the docket to the Attorney General’s office for review,” he explained.

After thoroughly examining the case file, he and his team found significant gaps in the evidence, making it impossible to proceed with prosecution at the time.

“After reviewing the docket, we realized that there wasn’t enough evidence to warrant the prosecution of anyone, and we advised the police to continue their investigation,” he added.

Ahmed Suale, a journalist with Tiger Eye PI, was assassinated in 2019, prompting widespread calls for a thorough investigation.

While authorities have faced criticism for the prolonged nature of the case, this latest arrest marks a crucial step forward. Whether it leads to a successful prosecution remains to be seen.
