According to the police, the money has been sent to the Bank of Ghana in the Police Exhibit account for the attention of the Court.

"The Police, on the advice of the Office of the Attorney-General, on Friday 20th October 2023, received an amount of GH¢2.5 Million from suspect Nana Appiah Mensah, popularly known as Nam 1.

"The said amount has been deposited in the Police Exhibit account at the Bank of Ghana (BoG) for the attention of the Court.

"The amount is part of investigations into petitions received from some customers of MenzGold Ghana Company Limited and Brew Marketing Consult Limited, currently before the Accra High Court against suspect Nana Appiah Mensah, popularly known as Nam 1," a post by Ghana Police Service on X read.

According to earlier reports, the amount was set to be distributed to customers who have followed the company's protocols and validation processes during the settlement period.
