The Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO) has declared businessman Dr Gabriel Tanko Kwamigah-Atokple a person of interest in an ongoing investigation into alleged fraud and money laundering.
In a statement dated March 30, EOCO said the investigation follows a petition filed in November 2025 by LG Resources Limited and Unigold Trading LLC, accusing SESI-EDEM Company Limited of defrauding them of 50 kilograms of gold valued at over GH¢57 million.
The agency stated that preliminary investigations indicate the alleged proceeds were traced to the company’s bank account, which has since been frozen to prevent dissipation of funds.
EOCO noted that Dr. Kwamigah-Atokple, owner of SESI-EDEM Company Limited, failed to honour an invitation extended to him in November 2025 to assist with investigations.
The Office added that although the company has challenged the freezing of its account in court, investigations are ongoing and no charges have yet been filed.
EOCO has therefore declared Dr. Kwamigah-Atokple wanted to assist with investigations and warned that it will use lawful means to locate and arrest the company’s directors if they continue to ignore requests to appear before investigators.
